Meghan asked the mum: “How old are they? Oh so really close to our kids. Three and five.”
The Duchess of Sussex even joked with a little boy in attendance about being out so late at the event, jokingly telling him: “It’s past your bedtime for sure.”
As well as spending time away from her children, Meghan is also currently apart from her husband – who is on a visit to South Africa.
Prince Harry flew to the UK earlier this week to attend the WellChild awards in London, before travelling for a surprise visit to Lesotho as part of a trip for his charity, Sentebale.
Although he was due to return to his young family this weekend, Harry has reportedly chosen to prolong his solo trip.
According to a well-placed source, Harry made the decision to “extend his trip by another few days”.
“It’s all very cloak and dagger but Harry has extended his trip abroad by another few days,” said the source. “He’ll likely go to Johannesburg and then to visit family and friends.
“The Spencers have a home there [in Cape Town] and he has a lot of friends from that part of the world. There’s also another trip planned which has been blanked out of his diary and he’s keen to keep it very private.”
