While Meghan Markle and Prince Harry don't have any announced events this week, the royal couple has been working—and secretly attended judging for the upcoming Endeavour Fund Awards yesterday afternoon at Kensington Palace, according to Hello! and the royal family's Court Circular, which documents all the family's official engagements. The Endeavour Fund was created by the Royal Foundation, the organisation of which Meghan, Harry, Kate Middleton, and Prince William are all joint patrons. Meghan first hinted what kind of work she wanted to do as a royal (focusing on 'girls' empowerment and womens' empowerment') at the Royal Foundation Forum last year.
This year's Endeavour Fund Awards, which recognizes the achievements of wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women, will be next month. Meghan and Harry attended last year's awards together on February 1, 2018. It was their first red carpet event together. Meghan wore a McQueen suiting jacket and Tuxe Bodywear bodysuit to it.
Meghan and Harry's last event together was last Wednesday night. The two attended the premiere of Cirque du Soleil's Totem at Royal Albert Hall, a special performance to raise money for the Sentebale charity. Harry is patron of Sentebale. The couple's first joint event of 2019 was Monday of that week when they went to Birkenhead together.
Meghan has also done several solo events this year. After the announcement of her first four patronages, Meghan had official visits to two of them: Smart Works and the Mayhew. The Duchess of Sussex is expected to visit her final two new patronages, the Association of Commonwealth Universities and the National Theatre, in the coming weeks.
