Harry and Meghan will return to New York City this October for a series of events centered on mental health.
On October 9, 2025, the couple will be honored at the Project Healthy Minds World Mental Health Day Gala, where they will accept the Humanitarians of the Year Award. The recognition celebrates their advocacy through the Archewell Foundation, including initiatives like The Parent’s Network, launched in partnership with Project Healthy Minds in 2023 to support families impacted by online harm.
The following day, October 10, Harry and Meghan will also take part in the World Mental Health Day Festival, where they are set to co-produce conversations and showcase The Lost Screen Memorial, a powerful installation honoring young lives lost to online harms.
This trip marks their first return to Manhattan since April’s TIME100 Summit, and the spotlight will once again be on both their advocacy and Meghan’s anticipated style choices for the gala.

In addition to New York, Meghan may have another high-profile event on her fall calendar. Meghan had been scheduled to be honored at the Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County’s “Night of Wonder” Gala, originally planned for June but now rescheduled for October 15, 2025. The event will recognize her work empowering women and underserved communities, aligning with the museum’s mission of advancing equity and access in science and nature
While Meghan was confirmed to attend the original June date, there’s no official confirmation yet on whether she will join the new October celebration. The gala serves as a key fundraiser for the museum’s educational and conservation programs, and Meghan’s participation would underscore her ongoing support for cultural and community initiatives in California.
As Ever shared a new photo last week on Instagram.
The photo features Meghan with her black lab, Pula, and her cherished beagle, Guy, who sadly passed away earlier this year.
The caption reads —
Crisp air, blue skies, and the sweetest moments 🍃”
Meghan is wearing her Gabriela Hearst ‘Puga’ dress which we have seen in several photos before posted to the account. The dress is no longer available.
I believe she is also wearing her Stuart Weitzman Benni Sandals in tan leather, $295. Some sizes available here and here.
She first wore the sandals last August while in South America.
Also on Friday, Meghan gave followers a glimpse of what’s next from her lifestyle brand As Ever. In an Instagram Story, she shared a photo of a chic flower bucket emblazoned with the brand’s logo — a subtle but exciting preview of what’s to come. While details remain under wraps, the stylish piece hints at how As Ever may expand into thoughtful, everyday items that blend elegance with function.
The flower bucket is part of the yet-to-be released As Ever home collection. Perhaps we will see this available before the holidays.
The chair and ottoman in the clip are likely from the Ellen Degeneres Collection by EJ Victor – the Claiborne chair and matching ottoman, $7160 (no longer available).
Similar here from West Elm – Jodie Wing Chair, $900.
The throw blanket is from Hermès – the ‘Avalon’ throw blanket, $2000. The throw has been seen previously in Meghan’s office.
The table is a round wooden pedestal style that can be found on various sites.
Bozovich Solid Wood End Table, $84 / Farmhouse Pedestal Small End Table, $68
As for the sheepskin rug, I found this one from Quince, Australian Double Sheepskin Rug, $150, and this one from Ikea, ULLERSLEVSheepskin, off-white, 2 ‘ 4 “, $60.
This week, Meghan shared a new story on Instagram showing her and her friends playing Mahjong.
I live in NY and was excited at the prospect of buying a ticket to the gala, but sadly the lowest level is $5000, which is out of my price range. ): And I can’t tell if tickets are available for the festival on the 10th?
Thank you for the great post, though, Susan (and I owe you an email!).
J’avais aperçu ce joli pot et avait écrit dans son site que j’espérais bientôt le voir en vente… Et bien voilà, vœu exaucé.
À côté, beau programme pour le couple qu’il me tarde de découvrir.
