The same evening, they issued a new announcement through their Archewell Foundation about their philanthropic efforts amid the “growing hunger crisis” in the United States, just the the royals, including the King and Queen and the Princess of Wales, were attending a poignant event in London for the Festival of Remembrance. New pictures have emerged from the glitzy gala in West Hollywood, with Harry and Meghan posing alongside various A-listers, including their pal, tennis star Serena Williams.

Harry and Meghan skipped the “red carpet” and headed straight inside, where they posed with their pal.
Those who attended included Orlando Bloom, Jessica Alba, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, among other huge Hollywood names.
The Sussex couple were later seen at Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party, with Meghan wearing the same outfit of a long black skirt with a navy turtleneck and black heels, while Harry had swapped from a dark suit and tie to a tuxedo. He was sporting a red poppy, pinned to the left side of his shoulder in both appearances.
In their statement on Saturday, Harry and Meghan announced that they are “bolstering” their efforts to provide meals and food relief to those in need in their local communities.
