Britain's
Duchess of Sussex flew to the Big Apple to meet 20 of her closest friends over the
course of five days for a private trip, to catch dinner with Serena Williams
and enjoy a baby shower being thrown by the likes of Amal Clooney and designer
Misha Nonoo and for at least one day, it it remained as discreet as intended.
A
royal scoop by Omid Scobie for Harper'sBazaar.com alerted the world's media
that the former actress was in town and within a few hours, her five star
accommodation at The Mark Hotel, home to the most expensive per-night hotel
room in the world, was a media frenzy.
Duchess of
Sussex, Meghan Markle reportedly spent $430,000 – which is N150 million – on
her lavish baby-shower in New York.
The
seven-months pregnant royal touched down in New York City on Friday to attend a
baby shower being thrown for her by her nearest and dearest pals after spending
Valentine’s Day with Prince Harry.
Meghan’s
baby shower took place in The Mark Hotel Grand Penthouse Suite, which boasts
gorgeous views of Central Park.
She then
left the US by private jet on Wednesday night from Teterboro, New Jersey, on a
plane that costs $125,000 per trip. Between lavish gifts from friends, to the
cost of her Royal Protection security and extravagant dinners, the royal’s week
in the city amounted to $430,896.98.
Meghan
flew back to the UK this morning and will begin a tour of Morocco with husband
Prince harry for three days on Saturday.
"The
Duke and Duchess are looking forward to the visit which will highlight the
vital roles that girls’ education and youth empowerment are playing in, and
shaping, modern Morocco," a Kensington Palace spokesperson said.
