The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the InterEdge Summit in Melbourne—an event focused on leadership, innovation, and global impact.
Harry took the stage as a keynote speaker, delivering remarks that leaned heavily into his ongoing advocacy work—particularly around mental health, leadership, and redefining purpose.
During his speech, Harry spoke openly about his life, his purpose, and the path that led him to where he is today. In a particularly personal moment, he reflected on the impact of losing his mother, Princess Diana.
It’s a sentiment he’s touched on before—but hearing it again, in this setting, felt especially honest and grounded.
“I didn’t want to be a royal,” he shared, referencing the period after her death and the emotional toll it took on him.
He also spoke about using his experiences to help others, particularly when it comes to mental health and leadership, emphasizing the importance of finding purpose beyond expectation.
Meghan was seated in the audience, watching Harry’s speech with a smile and showing her support throughout the event.
Below a look at what Meghan wore for the event. Apologies, I only have one photo at the moment.
The Duchess wore a top and matching skirt from Texas-based POSSE.
POSSE – Emma linen vest, $300 / POSSE – Emma linen midi skirt, $300
She wore her Aquazzura Purist 105mm leather pumps in beige, now $694. Additional sizes available here.
For jewelry, Meghan wore her Paspaley Opal Lavalier Pearl Earrings, $13,000, Logan Hollowell Constellation rings – Leo and Virgo.
I’ll be back late tonight with Friday’s engagements coverage. I believe we will see Meghan over the weekend on Saturday – I’m not sure about Sunday.
When I listen to Harry comment on the video you shared from Hellomag, I think that he and Meghan are a really good match. They support each other, always maintaining a positive dynamic despite what they have to face. And they still have that “something” that makes us feel they remain so close to the anonymous people that we are.
On the fashion side, I really like this look. I found her previous outfits rather dull in terms of colours (black, olive, brown) and I thought to myself why not a white outfit ? There, it’s done ! And it is a really good choice. And those earrings, sublime !
