Since coming into the public scene, we’ve enjoyed seeing Meghan Markle looking glamorous fashion choices. Every time we’re desperate to see what she’ll next and how she’s wearing it but it seems we may not be seeing as much of the Duchess of Sussex as she’s rounded up with her official royal duties. 

 The Duchess of Sussex concluded her final solo engagement on Monday with a private meeting with the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), regarding their commitment to tackling global challenges. Held at Buckingham Palace, the Duchess played her role as patron of the Association and chatted with the students from the organization which consists of over 500 colleges and universities from Commonwealth countries.

Earlier this week The Duchess of Sussex, in her role as Patron of the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), met with the bright minds from across the Commonwealth to hear about their commitment to tackling the global challenges we all face. The Duchess spoke with Scholars studying and researching important areas surrounding; cleaning up plastic pollution in our oceans, helping to build more sustainable cities, improving health outcomes for citizens, and supporting decent work and economic growth. Paving the way as the next generation of leaders, these inspirational scholars, are spread far across the Commonwealth from Malawi to Malaysia, Ghana to Sri Lanka – all of whom will use the skills and knowledge they gain while studying in the UK to make a difference when they return to their home countries. The Duchess, who also attended university with support of a scholarship, is a strong advocate of accessible education for all. As the Royal Patron of The Association of Commonwealth Universities (@The_ACU_Official) since January 2019, The Duchess has met and engaged with students, academics, and staff from ACU member universities across the Commonwealth to learn more about the vital work they do to address global challenges. As President and Vice President of The @Queens_Commonwealth_Trust, The Duke and Duchess thank all those who are working to give access to education for all.
