The Duchess of Sussex lends her voice as guest editor for the prominent fashion magazine
With British Vogue's guest-edited September issue hitting the stands next month, we now know what the Duchess of Sussex has been up to during her maternity leave—besides jazzing up her new home. The new issue gives us a glimpse into Meghan's thoughts and beliefs, beyond the title of “Her Royal Highness”. Here's what we learned about Meghan Markle:
1. She is passionate about her charity patronages
Since becoming a part of the royal family, the Duchess of Sussex has chosen to become the patron of several charities, including Smart Works, which helps unemployed women return to the workplace.
In Meghan's editor's note, she describes how she first approached British Vogue’s editor-in-chief, Edward Enninful for his support in “an organisation [she] strongly believed in, called Smart Works.”
As royal patron to the charity, Meghan has personally helped style a woman for her job interview, and is working on launching a collaborative fashion collection with the likes of designer Misha Nonoo and British department store Marks & Spencer to benefit the organisation.
