Meghan Markle surprised patients at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles for story time as part of the Make March Matter campaign.

Markle, 42, read books like Rosie the Riveter, Pete the Cat and I Saw a Cat to the young patients during Literally Healing story time that took place last month. Aside from reading to the kids, Markle also assisted the patients with STEM-focused activities related to each book that she read.

According to photos obtained by Us Weekly on Tuesday, April 2, Markle wore a sheer blouse and floral-print skirt during her visit to the hospital. She paired the look with black flats and a black face mask.

After reading to the kids, Markle snapped photos with a few of the patients who appeared overjoyed by her appearance.

Years later, a source exclusively told Us in December 2023 that Meghan remains “laser-focused” on charity initiatives, including Archewell. “Everything she considers must fall in line with an Archewell initiative,” the insider added at the time.

That same month, Archewell announced Markle debuted the Welcome Project, a “women-led programming for recently resettled Afghan women.”

“By Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex Established 2024,” the Instagram bio read, with little detail about what’s to come.

Days later Us confirmed that the United States Patent and Trademark Office accepted Markle’s bid for the American Riviera Orchard trademark. The application “has met the minimum filing requirements [but] and has not yet been assigned to an examiner,” the official document read.

Per Markle’s application, the venture will include domestic items, including cutlery, cookbooks and jarred foods.
