Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, traveled to Britain to give a public speech for the first time since giving up her royal status.

Markle, accompanied by her husband, Prince Harry, gave the speech at the One Young World summit, addressing humanity’s challenges.

She spoke about self-doubt thinking and talked about her experience appearing in a popular American drama series for seven years.

“I was allowed in to pull up a seat at the table,” Meghan said. “I was so overwhelmed by this experience, I think I even saved my little paper place-marker with my name on it.”

“Just proof — proof that I was there, proof that I belonged, because the truth was, I wasn’t sure that I belonged,” she added.

🚨 POLL: Should Meghan Markle stay in Britain?
YES 👍 or NO 👎

Markle and Harry are reportedly staying in Windsor near the home of Prince William and his family, but do not have plans of getting a place together.

More on this story:

William worries that the private conversations between him and his brother will be brought up to the media, as some have in earlier bombshell interviews, according to Harry’s biographer Angela Levin.

Markle and Harry have rarely made trips to the UK since stepping down as senior royals in 2020. They appeared at Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee in June but left before celebrations came to a close. They also made a brief appearance at a thanksgiving service.

Their next stop is Germany for a Tuesday event counting down to the Invictus Games 2023. Harry is scheduled to deliver a speech at a charity ceremony in London on Thursday.
