Meghan Markle delivers powerful speech as Prince Harry watches on hours before Princess Kate’s devastating cancer news

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made an appearance in Los Angeles, just hours before the Princess of Wales revealed she was undergoing preventative chemotherapy for cancer.

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan were pictured at the Kinsey African American Art and History Collection’s event at SoFi Stadium on Thursday March 21. In a video from the event posted on attendee Matheos Coehlo’s Instagram, Meghan could be heard telling guests: “I thought, ‘Oh my gosh, the extension of that can mean you’re vocal about your success, they’ll see you and say you deserved it.’ And hopefully you get to that place. So a huge thanks to the Kinsey family.”

Screenwriter Matheos also shared a picture of him posing with the Duchess.

The Kinsey Collection and Foundation celebrates “Black achievement and contribution from 1595-present day through authentic artifacts and fine art”.

Meghan, 42, wore a floral Carolina Herrera wool cape while Harry, 39, kept it casual in a dark suit with an open-necked white shirt. Tina Knowles, Elaine Weltroth, and TV personality Shaun Robinson were all also in attendance.
