Duchess Meghan Reveals Growing Baby Bump On First Patronage Visit

The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, has given a glimpse of her growing baby bump while completing a royal visit off the back of her first patronages.

Prince Harry's wife visited Smart Works in London which is one of the four patronages she now holds, along with The National Theatre, The Association of Commonwealth Universities and Mayhew.

The expectant royal donned a black mid-length dress for her appearance, showing off her growing bump, which was last seen when she stepped out on Christmas Day.

Thursday 10 January marked her first public trip to the charity and she said: "You guys know I've been quietly coming by... close to a year. It's nice to be able to now do it publicly and really talk about the work that you do."

Once inside, the former actress, whose baby is due in Spring, took a hands on approach to outfit styling.

Smart Works is a charity that helps long-term unemployed women regain skills and succeed at job interviews and provides suitable clothing for the workplace.

The duchess appears to be the perfect person for the job based on her experience in styling and women's empowerment.

She said: "It's not just about donating your clothes and seeing where they land, but really being part of each other's success stories as women. It's not just hand-me-downs, it's saying 'Ok, this is the blazer that I wore that helped me land that interview and I want this to be the piece that helps this woman have that part of her story'..so to know as a woman coming in, I would imagine, that you have so many women believing in you on all the next phases, is the piece that makes it so special."
