Meghan Markle is taking inspiration from Kate Middleton's all-green outfit in Blackpool last week. The Duchess of Sussex just stepped out with Prince Harry at Canada House to celebrate "the diverse community of Canadians living around the UK," Kensington Palace wrote. This is an especially fitting stop for Meghan, who lived in Toronto for years while she was shooting Suits. She and Harry began their romance long distance when she was based there for her acting work, and he was based in London for his own royal work.

This is just the beginning of Commonwealth Day activities for the royal family. Kate Middleton and Prince William will also be out today with Meghan and Harry for the Commonwealth Service at Westminster Abbey.

Meghan's appearance today comes after she was out Friday for the International Women's Day panel hosted at King's College London. Meghan spoke then about her baby, telling the group, "It’s funny, I’ve actually been joking the last few weeks. I had seen this documentary on Netflix about feminism, and one of the things they said during pregnancy was ‘I feel the embryonic kicking of feminism.’ I loved that, so boy or girl, whatever it is, we hope that that’s the case with our little bump."

Meghan advocated there for people using their voice to champion change. "If things are wrong and there is a lack of justice and an inequality, someone needs to say something-and why can't it be you?" she told the crowd.
