Duchess Meghan had a secret power meeting with Michelle Obama in London on Monday, December 3.

the former first lady met Meghan Markle during a stop in London for her latest book "becoming" tour.

the Duchess of Sussex stepped out for some private time to join the former first lady in an event where she was discussing her memoir, Becoming, with Nigerian novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

Obama offered up her advice to Duchess Meghan, based on her own experiences as a private citizen who was thrust into the public spotlight.

“Like me, Meghan probably never dreamt that she’d have a life like this, and the pressure you feel from yourself and from others can sometimes feel like a lot,” she said. "So my biggest piece of advice would be to take some time and don’t be in a hurry to do anything."

the life of the two ladies changed abruptly when Michelle ’s when her husband won the presidential election in 2008, Meghan’s fate changed when she and now-husband Prince Harry announced their engagement in November 2017.
