On June 30, 2019, the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, made a rare public appearance alongside her husband, Prince Harry, at the London Series baseball game between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox.
The royal couple was spotted meeting baseball stars and shaking hands with the players, including Mookie Betts, who may be Meghan's distant cousin, according to recent reports.
As part of the event, both teams gifted Prince Archie, their one-year-old son, with adorable presents. The Yankees gave him a miniature customised baseball shirt, while the Red Sox presented him with a tiny red baseball bat.
Prince Harry's Invictus Games Foundation was also promoted at the event, which took place at Queen Elizabeth Park. The foundation aims to aid the recovery of sick and wounded personnel and veterans.
The royal couple's appearance at the game was a significant moment, as it marked one of Meghan's few public appearances since giving birth to Archie on May 6, 2019.
