Meghan Markle Turns Awkward Greeting Into Sweet Moment at One Young World Summit

The Duchess of Sussex made her first public appearance following last Sunday’s ITV documentary. Joining the opening ceremony of One Young World Summit at the Royal Albert Hall, Meghan Markle had an awkward encounter with one of the founds, Kate Roberston.

The Duchess Wants A Hug Not A Curtsy

When she went to the stage, Meghan went for a friendly hug to greet Kate but the latter had something else in mind. It seemed like Kate wanted to shake, curtsy, and hug Meghan at the same time.

With Meghan approaching her with arms wide open, Kate accepts the Duchess’ hug while still kneeling to curtsy. Meghan could be seen shaking her head but the pair just laughed it off while locked in a warm embrace.

Meghan wore a purple midi dress to the event. She was seen wearing the same dress paired with a red jacket back when she was still pregnant with Archie in January. During that time, she was with Prince Harry as they visited Birkenhead.
