Back To Royal Business

 

- 

 

Much speculation had centred on where Prince Harry and his bride Meghan would spend their honeymoon, but shortly after the big day Kensington Palace confirmed the newlyweds would be postponing their honeymoon because they had scheduled royal engagements.

The first of these was also their first engagement as a married couple, to join Prince Charles and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall at the Prince of Wales’ 70th Birthday Patronage Celebration in the Gardens of Buckingham Palace on May 22. The Queen hosted the party to celebrate her son’s 70th year with more than 6,000 people in attendance, all linked to charities that Prince Charles supports in celebration of his patronage work.

Perhaps not surprisingly, the glamorous couple stole the show at the event. The American actress looked regal in a cream hat and matching outfit at her first event as a Royal - but made sure to keep her new husband close throughout the afternoon.

The new Duchess of Sussex, wearing a dress by Goat and hat by Philip Treacy, appeared in high spirits as she smiled and chatted with guests at the Buckingham Palace garden party.
