Meghan Markle dazzles in Jordan as duchess wears eye-watering £1,498 white outfit

Its description reads: “Tailored to perfection. Crafted from off-white Italian tweed, the Yves jacket features a slim, waist-defining fit with a clean, collarless double-breasted silhouette.

“A cutaway hem further accentuates the waist, while fringe-trimmed patch pockets add dimension.

“Style with denim and a heeled bootie for a classic VB look.”

The mother-of-two paired her jacket with off-white Veronica Beard Marbeau wide-leg trousers, which retail for £448, and are described as “a relaxed, roomy pant that still feels polished”.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the World Health Organisation‘s (WHO) country office in Jordan’s capital, Amman, for the start of a two-day visit.

During the trip, Meghan and Harry will support the WHO’s efforts to spotlight Jordan’s leadership in the regional humanitarian health response.

The former working royals will also visit initiatives they have helped fund to medically evacuate children from the war in Gaza to the Middle East nation.

The couple, who stepped down as working royals in 2020 for personal and financial freedom, are travelling to Jordan at the invitation of Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the WHO.

Their visit comes at a time of crisis for the Royal Family following the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Harry has not spoken publicly about the turmoil that has engulfed his relatives.

In May last year, the duke lost a Court of Appeal challenge over his security arrangements while in the UK.

But in a major U-turn, the Home Office is said to have now ordered a full threat assessment for the first time since 2020, amid reports Harry’s taxpayer-funded armed protection will be reinstated for visits to the UK.

Since moving to California in 2020 for a new life, the Sussexes have carried out several foreign visits that, in many ways, mirrored official royal tours.

During their two-day visit, the Sussexes will meet Jordanian leaders and senior health officials, engage with WHO teams, visit frontline health and mental health programmes and meet World Central Kitchen staff co-ordinating food relief for Gaza from Amman.

They will also visit Questscope’s social development organisation’s youth centre to hear from young people participating in creative and wellbeing programmes.

The couple first partnered with the WHO on a global campaign to encourage vaccine equity and co-hosted a high-level event at the UN General Assembly in 2021.

Their charitable body has also worked with the organisation on its global initiative to help end violence against children.
