Causes dear to all of their hearts, the quad is helping to raise awareness for Royal Foundation programs like Heads Together and the Invictus Games, which aim to shed light on youth mental health issues and the plight of injured or sick veterans, respectively. Looking stylish as ever, and completely comfortable in one another’s company, Kate and Meghan donned blue dresses – Meghan’s by Canada-raised designer Jason Wu and the pregnant Duchess’s by Seraphine, one of her favourite maternity designers. The princes looked dapper in a relaxed sports jackets.

Now that Meghan, 36, will officially join the royal family on May 19 , she’ll become the fourth patron of the Royal Foundation, working with her new family on their quest to destigmatize mental health with Heads Together. Opening up about her future contributions, the former actress shared, “It’s incredibly exciting… While I’ve worked with large NGOs, I’ve also worked with really small, grassroots organizations where you can see a higher level of impact because there’s a lot less red tape.”

The Suits alum also touched on the #MeToo movement , which sprung up late last year after a series of sexual abuse and harassment cases were revealed in Hollywood, “Right now, with so many campaigns like MeToo and Time’s Up, there’s no better time to continue to shine a light on women feeling empowered and people supporting them.” Meghan has made clear her primary role in the organization, working for women’s equality and rights, for which she said she’ll be ‘hitting the ground running.’
