Meghan has poignant meeting with Association of Commonwealth Universities

Following a starry engagement at The National Theatre as its patron on Wednesday (Jan. 30), the Duchess of Sussex has done it yet again, stepping out to support a cause close to her heart.
The academic-minded royal was the picture of elegance in an all-black ensemble for a meeting with the Association of Commonwealth Universities at the University of London on Jan. 31. She first met with the group in secret in December 2018, but now she's officially visited as their official royal patron.
