The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are today beginning their first official tour as a family, alongside their five-month old baby Archie.
- Meghan and Harry will arrive in South Africa this week to visit landmarks and important historical sites.
- The Duchess of Sussex has planned a special gift for a charity, which she will be visiting whilst she’s out there.
- This follows royal news that Kensington Palace shared an unseen photo of Kate Middleton for a lovely reason.
Following Archie’s birth back in May, the Palace claim that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were ‘inundated’ with gifts from organisations and the public.
And as a result, the couple have planned to share all of the touching gifts with those in need, explaining that their young son can only make use of so much!
A source from the palace told Hello! magazine: ‘They were incredibly grateful but one little baby can only wear so many clothes and he’s growing fast! So the Duchess decided to being a number of his presents to re-gift them to South African children and families most in need.’
‘She’ll take a selection of clothes, books and pens to the mothers2mothers charity which help families with HIV.’ They confirmed.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and baby Archie begin their 10-day royal tour of South Africa today, and the mothers2mothers charity confirmed that Meghan would indeed be visiting.
Via their Twitter account, they said in an excited update: ‘We are thrilled to confirm that HRH #DuchessofSussex will be visiting mothers2mothers on Wednesday in Cape Town, #SouthAfrica as part of the #SussexRoyalTour!’
They added ‘Keep an eye on our social channels for more details in the next few days’ and shared a link to an official news update on their website.

This is such a sweet gesture and we’re looking forward to learning more about Meghan’s visit to the charity!
