Although the visit itself attracted attention, there is a detail on the dress Meghan Markle wore on this occasion that is believed to carry an ironic message.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry started their trip to Nigeria on Friday with a visit to a school, but online, people are talking more about one particular thing, than the actual interaction with the students.
The Duchess of Sussex looked stunning in a peach-colored maxi dress by Heidi Merrick. Interestingly (or perhaps not coincidentally), the style of the dress is named “Windsor.”
Markle wore this aptly named dress paired with a gold necklace and a longer wooden bead necklace that matched one Prince Harry gave during their visit.
She wore her hair pulled back into a low ponytail to showcase her vintage gold Lanvin button earrings, with minimal makeup enhancing her radiant appearance.
However, fans couldn’t help but notice the irony of the Duchess—who left royal life and her home at Windsor Castle in 2020—wearing a dress named “Windsor” in 2024.
The teasing might be mutual, as Buckingham Palace recently promoted its own strawberry preserves, shortly after Markle announced that her first product from the American Riviera Orchard line would be jam.
