Meghan Markle speaks publicly in UK for first time since leaving the Royal Family

Meghan Markle has given her first public speech in the UK since stepping down as a senior royal more than two years ago.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are visiting the UK to attend the One Young World Summit in Manchester. Meghan, 41, is a counsellor for the organisation, with the summit bringing together young leaders from more than 190 countries, writes the Mirror.
