Meghan Markle has already bonded with her soon-to-be royal in-laws!
On Wednesday, the former Suits actress stepped out with her fiancé Prince Harry, Prince William, and Kate Middleton for their first official outing as a foursome. Clearly, Miz Markle has been accepted by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, as they were all smiles at an event for The Royal Foundation.
Not to mention, Harry and Meghan couldn't help but gush about their connection with Will and Kate. While discussing their plans for the first annual Royal Foundation Forum, the engaged love birds dished about the group's special bond. Harry noted:
"We have different opinions and they work really well [together]. Working as family does have its challenges; of course it does… [I think] the fact that everybody is laughing shows they know exactly what's it like. But we are stuck together for the rest of our lives."
Harry's fiancée concurred his sentiment, as she added:
"Togetherness at its finest."
We're not crying, YOU ARE. The royal foursome were last spotted all together back on Christmas morning, during a church outing with Queen Elizabeth and co.
Nonetheless, it feels like Meghan's been a part of the Windsor fam for a while now. In fact, she already has big philanthropic plans for when she marries Harry.
Following her May nuptials to the ginger prince, the American divorcée plans to "hit the ground running" with work in support of women's rights. Meghan even took a moment at the outing to shine a light on the #MeToo and Time's Up movements. The longtime activist relayed:
"I hear a lot of people speaking about girls' empowerment and women's empowerment — you will hear people saying they are helping women find their voices. I fundamentally disagree with that because women don't need to find their voices, they need to be empowered to use it and people need to be urged to listen.
Right now with so many campaigns like #MeToo and Time's Up there's no better time to continue to shine a light on women feeling empowered and people supporting them."
Hear! Hear!
This bold stance directly contradicts the subtle support Middleton tried to show the movements at the BAFTA Awards. Although, to be fair, the royal family generally steers clear of political issues. As Kate is married to a future monarch, she has to tread a bit more carefully.
Also, a lot of Kate's work as a royal has been focused on supporting women's issues, such as mental health and motherhood. Thus, we're excited to see what this foursome undertakes in the near future.
We have big expectations for them all!!
