Meghan has opened up about being a working mum, stating that her royal tour in South Africa with baby Archie is ‘a lot’.
The Duchess of Sussex spent the morning with her son and husband Prince Harry as they met Archbishop Desmond Tutu and drank tea with his wife Leah.
She then headed off for two engagements of her own, one with a group of female entrepreneurs and the other meeting a charity called Mothers2mothers.
Wearing an elegant black Everland jumpsuit, heels and gold statement earrings, she shared her excitement at having Archie on the tour.
She told the female entrepreneurs at the Woodstock Exchange: ‘We’re only five months in right now.
‘Being a working mum and travelling as well with a baby, my goodness it’s a lot, but it’s all so exciting.
‘There are days when it’s a lot to juggle but then you meet someone, have an impact on them and it’s so rewarding.’

Mothers2mothers, Meghan’s next stop, is an Africa-based charity that trains and employs women living with HIV as community health workers.
There she chatted to HIV ‘mentor mothers’ about parenthood, before encouraging them to get off their chairs and sit on the floor with her.
She reached out to some of the toddlers running around the circle and told the group: ‘I just think if it was Archie and all those toys in the middle and I was sitting on a chair he’d feel it was so unfair!’
The duchess also donated some of the gifts she had received for Archie but he had grown too much to wear.
A source said: ‘The Duke and Duchess were inundated with gifts for baby Archie from organisations and the general public.

‘They were incredibly grateful, but one little baby can only wear so many clothes and he’s growing fast.’
Meghan and Harry made their last joint appearance today before the duke jets off to Botswana.
The royal couple introduced Archie to the Tutu, and he later caused the Archbishop to fall into fits of laughter by pulling faces in Meghan’s lap.
Meghan joked that her son was ‘an old soul’ while Harry commented about his relaxation in front of the cameras: ‘I think he is used to it already.’
Tutu’s daughter, Thandeka Tutu-Gxashe, was also present at the meeting, and told Archie: ‘You like the ladies. He’s going to be a ladies man.’
