Meghan Markle's private visit to a London university revealed

A photo of Meghan Markle at an event last night has emerged and seems to suggest the Duchess is further along in her pregnancy than previously thought.

The service is a regular date in the royal calendar and commemorates Henry van Straubenzee, a childhood friend of Harry's who died in a auto crash aged 18 in 2002. The memorial fund "aims to fight poverty in Uganda through education".

The meeting between the two iconic women was private, but a source confirmed to People that they spoke for a while about women's empowerment - a cause to which they've both dedicated years of their lives.

A snap of the couple during the evening can be seen here.

Meghan was said to have given a confident recital of Our Deepest Fear by Marianne Williamson in front of a packed congregation at St Luke's church in Kensington, west London.

While the Fab Four weren't together for this event, they will spend time together over the Christmas holiday, as the group is scheduled to spend Christmas in Norfolk with the Queen at Sandringham.

The conversation between two of the world's most influential women followed Michelle's sell-out speech at the Royal Festival Hall, which Meghan attended.

In an interview with the magazine published one day prior to the meeting, Obama compared her own experience of being thrust into the limelight when Barack ran for president to Meghan's when she went public with Prince Harry.

Once the newest royal baby arrives, he or she will have plenty of built-in friends, and Kate Middleton recently discussed the family's upcoming arrival during an event last week.

"Absolutely!" the royal responded in a video shared by Harry_Meghan_Updates on Instagram. "It's such a special time to have little kiddies".
