👑 MEGHAN MARKLE MADE A SURPRISE SOLO APPEARANCE—AND ONE CANDID ADMISSION QUICKLY CAUGHT PEOPLE’S ATTENTION.

Meghan Markle made her first public appearance in weeks on Tuesday, just days after she returned home to California from her recent summer trip to Europe. The Duchess of Sussex attended a special screening for one of her films, Cookie Queens, in Los Angeles.

Cookie Queens is a documentary about four girls who “strive to be a top-selling ‘Cookie Queen,’ navigating an $800 million business in which childhood and ambition collide” and Harry and Meghan executive-produced it through their Archewell Productions company. On Tuesday, Meghan posed with the cast and crew of the documentary and also went on stage to take part in a Q&A, where she revealed what her husband, Prince Harry, told her in order to get through the “really hard days”. Asked about how she motivates herself during “tough moments, Meghan said, as per People: “I think so much of it, funny enough, I was thinking about something my husband told me ages ago, because we all go through experiences and life is full of surprises.

“But you know, he was a helicopter pilot in the British Army for 10 years. And sometimes on really hard days, he said, ‘Hey, but my love, you know, even if there’s a storm happening above the storm, the sun’s always shining.’ ”

Meghan said that Harry’s perspective “only comes when you think about zooming out a little”.

The duchess stressed that it is important to maintain the perspective that no matter what feels insurmountable, there’s just always that sun shining above it.”

She said: “So I think when you really zoom out and think, ‘My gosh, how many things have we gone through that have felt hard?’ And then you still get through them.
