After a whirlwind day catching up with her closest pals, Meghan Markle kept the fun going on Tuesday evening as she glammed up for a night out on the town in New York. The heavily pregnant royal enjoyed a fancy dinner at Ralph Lauren’s restaurant The Polo Bar with her friends, including Jessica Mulroney and Serena Williams  - who is said to be hosting Meghan's baby shower on Wednesday at the Mark Hotel, on the Upper East Side.

Prince Harry’s wife looked excited as she arrived at the Manhattan eaterie, dressed to the nines for the occasion. Her outfit consisted of a navy Victoria Beckham coat – which she also gave an outing on Christmas Day – some Hatch maternity jeans, and Tamara Mellon boots in black. She accessorized with a Stella McCartney bag and wrapped up from the cold in a black scarf.

Waiting to escort her inside was Meghan’s close friend Markus Anderson – who has been in her inner circle for years and reportedly introduced her to her husband. Markus, the director of private members club Soho House – took her arm and led her inside, and with the guest of honor in the building, the celebrations could finally begin.

The Polo Club

If the 37-year-old was feeling any pregnancy fatigue she certainly wasn't showing it as she arrived at the Polo Club. Meghan is said to have arrived at approximately 7.30pm to join her group of besties.

Glam make-up

Meghan went for a bolder look for the glitzy night out than the natural make-up she usually favors. She rocked a smokey eye shadow and gave her pregnancy glow a little enhancement with some bronzer and highlighter.
