Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s whistle-stop royal tour of Morocco wrapped up on Monday with a fun day of engagements that got underway during an encounter with some four-legged friends at the Royal Moroccan Equestrian Club Dar Essalam. Animal lover Meg was clearly in her element as she petted one of the center’s trusty steeds – who are part of a special programme to help support children with disabilities through equine therapy. The method – which coincidentally Selena Gomez is a big fan of uses interactions with horses to help promote emotional growth and communication skills in patients. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s final day in the Arabic country also included a cooking class – during which the VIP visitors were scheduled to watch children make a dish from the Grenfell cookbook championed by Meghan.

The previous evening the royal couple dazzled crowds at a reception hosted by the British Ambassador to Morocco at the British Residence in Rabat. Prince Harry and his pregnant wife spent the evening meeting influential Moroccan women and speaking to the nation's young entrepreneurs and disabled athletes.

Dressed-down Duchess

Meghan's look was a sharp contrast to the glam Dior gown she wore for the reception the night before. The American royal's attire was perfect for the equine outing, however, and she looked super cute to boot. The casual look consisted of a monochrome striped jersey, black jeans and matching boots.

The royal couple were as tactile as ever on their visit, and looked in high spirits as they strolled around the stables hand-in-hand.
