The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, is pictured dining with Nobel Peace laureate Malala Yousafzai at Claridge’s in Mayfair, London. Multiple outlets describe the pair arriving for and leaving the luxury hotel together, including a photo moment featuring a hug outside the foyer.
The reports frame the meeting as part of Meghan’s first visible London outing since she and Prince Harry moved back to the UK. While all accounts agree on the location and that the two women spend time together there—chatting and sharing a meal—details differ slightly between sources, with one focusing on an afternoon tea and others emphasizing dinner. All describe Malala and Meghan as long-time friends dating back to at least 2020, and note Malala’s age and Nobel Peace background in context of the meeting.
