Glowing Meghan Markle steps out in elegant floor-length white gown

Pregnant Meghan Markle epitomised elegance when she arrived for an official dinner with the King and Queen of Tonga on Thursday night.

With Prince Harry by her side, the 37-year-old Duchess of Sussex stepped out in a floor-length white dress by Theia called the ‘Theia cap-sleeve beaded silk gown’.

She teamed the dress with a pair of Aquazzura Deneuve Bow Pumps and a Givenchy clutch.

As the royal couple arrived at the Consular House in central Nuku’alofa, a John Lennon classic, ‘Imagine’, played in the background ahead of an evening which featured some traditional Tongan entertainment.

Fashion mistake

Earlier in the day, the couple arrived in Tonga and all eyes were on Meghan when she accidentally made a fashion faux pas.

As she stepped off the plane in a stunning, $627 Self-Portrait dress, eagle-eyed royal watchers noticed she still had the tag swinging off the frock’s midi-length hem.

Aside from the hanging label, the long-sleeved dress beautifully showed off the Duchess’ growing baby bump, and she paired it with black stilettos and a matching clutch.

Farewell Fiji

In the morning, Prince Harry and Meghan kicked off their third and final day in Fiji with a visit to the county’s city, Nadi for the unveiling of a statue to a hero sergeant.

The Duchess looked content and calm hours after having to leave a Suva market early on Wednesday afternoon due to a crowd control related ‘security risk’.

Meghan wore the $2400 ‘Compact crepe sheath dress’ by Jason Wu teamed with a pair of black heels and gold leaf-shaped drop earrings.

She watched as Harry delivered a moving speech and the pair later boarded a plane for Tonga.

Security scare

On Wednesday Meghan was forced to cut short an official royal appearance, after Kensington Palace deemed it a ‘security risk’.

She was visiting Suva Municipal Market to meet some of the female vendors who have been involved in the UN Women’s project ‘Markets for Change’.

Meghan was supposed to spend about 20 minutes mingling with the locals, however, her visit ended abruptly after six minutes, with Meghan escorted out of the building by officials.

According to numerous reports, Kensington Palace came to the conclusion that the crowds were too big and decided to pull the plug early on the scheduled appearance.

Meghan’s protection officer could be seen in the photos putting her hands out in front of the pregnant royal and trying to keep people back.
