The Duchess of Sussex looked elegant in a floral dress as she arrived for a solo engagement at a London care home on Tuesday.
Pregnant Meghan, 37, donned a £834 midi by LA-based label Brock Collection for the occasion, teaming it with a £550 grey wool coat by Canadian brand Soia & Kyo to keep her warm on the chilly winter's morning.
The former actress is on hand to bring Christmas cheer to retired entertainers at Brinsworth House, the Royal Variety Charity's residential nursing and care home in Twickenham.
The royal, who is expecting her first child with Prince Harry next spring, appeared in excellent spirits as she spoke to residents inside the property. When one told her they are 'all great friends', Meghan replied: 'I hope I can join the club'.
The visit comes amid speculation that the Duchess will soon be given her first royal patronage.
Last month the duchess and her husband attended the annual Royal Variety Show, one of the biggest fundraisers for charity, of which the Queen is patron, which assists those who have worked professionally in the entertainment industry and are in need of help and assistance as a result of old age, ill-health, or hard times.
Many of those who work in the entertainment industry can often work season to season, spending long periods with no work at all, and with little ability to make any plans for their futures, or to provide themselves with security should they have an accident or fall ill.
Money raised by the Royal Variety Charity, and through the annual Royal Variety Performance, helps and supports hundreds of retired entertainers throughout the UK.
Brinsworth House, which is owned and managed by the charity, accommodates up to 36 residents who are cared for by a dedicated team of nurses and care assistants.
