Cape Town – The Duke and Duchess stepped out at a reception for the Your Commonwealth Youth Challenge looking chic as ever.

Prince Harry looked handsome in his iconic blue suit while Meghan stole the spotlight, or should we say sun light, wearing a yellow dress by American designer Brandon Maxwell.

At the reception, the royal couple met youths who have completed their leadership training provided by the Commonwealth Secretariat in a further step to develop their ideas on the type of Commonwealth they want to see in 2040.

The event marked Prince Harry’s first official undertaking in his new role as a Commonwealth Youth Ambassador.

“Meghan and I are incredibly excited to meet so many of you representing the future of the Commonwealth. We can’t wait to see you in action in your home countries and learn about what you’re doing to better the Commonwealth, and the world, in 2040 and beyond,” Harry said addressing the attendees.

He added: “My job as your ambassador is to listen and learn from you, to amplify your voices and to bring your ideas to the attention of decision makers.”
