What Did Meghan Markle Do During Last Ireland Trip 4 Years Ago?

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are in Ireland, but this is not the actress' first time visiting the country.

According to Katie Nicholl, the Duchess of Sussex visited Dublin four years ago. In 2014, Markle was there to attend the One Young World summit. The new royal was the counselor of the international organization committed to helping young people at that time.

"She was impressive to listen to, she was passionate about gender equality and women’s rights, and she was determined to bring about change in the TV industry," One Young World managing director Ella Robertson said about Markle.

Robertson said she remembers Markle as someone who lit up the room. Markle is set to return to Croke Park where the summit in 2014 was held.

In 2013, the "Horrible Bosses" star also stopped by Ireland and enjoyed a night out at Dicey's Garden. "Dublin, you are beyond lovely. Having the best day and excited for a night @diceysgarden and @krystlenightclub xoxo," Markle posed on Twitter as shared by Caolan McAree.

Prince Harry and Markle's itinerary in Dublin includes meeting with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and President of Ireland Michael Higgins. This is the couple's first official overseas trip together.

A few weeks back, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made headlines after Prince Harry reportedly declined to hold hands. During the Queen's Young Leaders Awards ceremony, Markle was seen reaching out to her husband's arms. However, Prince Harry ignored her efforts and brought his arms together, instead. The couple then walked as if nothing happened.

According to People, Prince Harry "knows the drills when his grandmother, the Queen is around." The royals are discouraged from showing PDA, especially when on official business.

"Public displays of affection, such a hand holding, may be accepted in private situations and in social spheres, but when out in public Harry and Meghan are on official business and so it is not considered professional behaviour," William Hanson, a royal etiquette expert, said.

Prince Harry and Markle have stopped holding hands after that event. However, they were seen locking fingers again when they attended a reception in London on Thursday.
