Meghan Markle and Prince Harry greet the public in Auckland

The weather has finally clarified for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as they welcomed fans to Auckland, New Zealand.

After a busy day that involved devoting some of the native vegetation to Queen's Commonwealth Canopy, participating in a well-wanging contest with local children and visiting a charity which supports children who have a parent in prison, the royal couple met with members of the public. .

While they were interacting with fans, prospective royal parents received several gifts, including an All Blacks – the country's football team – a stuffed bird and even a rain boot, or a Wellington, as locals say. , stuffed with roses.

Meghan, 37, was released in a Brandon Maxwell beige dress with matching Stuart Weitzman pumps and a beige Burberry Bishop trench coat.

The dress was hanging from her baby bump that she had rocked while walking with Harry, 34, by her side. For their rendezvous, the prince wore a navy blue suit with a white button-down shirt.

The duo made sure to talk to as many royal fans as possible – especially the younger members of the crowd.

Meghan invited a little girl to cross the crowd control barrier and was rewarded with a stuffed toy from a native bird tui.

Harry was particularly in love with a small baby and reached out and gave the child what appeared to be a small tickle.

"The Walks," as the royal meeting and greetings are commonly known, have provided some of the most frankest moments of Meghan and Harry on the Royal Tour. Shortly after arriving in New Zealand, Meghan comforted a crying teenager by holding her by the hand.

A young royal fan wearing a shirt on which he wrote "Girls Can Do Anything" drew Harry's attention to Sydney – so much so that he had to call his wife to meet her.

"We think it looks a bit like you," Meghan was told in a video posted by Harry Meghan Updates on Instagram.

The Duchess of Sussex replied: "I was literally about to say the same thing!"

Harry then took the phone from a fan to take a picture of Meghan with his mini-me, a rare gesture for the prince, who generally adheres to the royal protocol of the autograph and selfies.

Earlier in the day, the royal couple forged links with children from the environmental education group "Trees of Survival", an environmental education group, and joined them for a "Welly wanging" contest.

The goal of the game was to throw a Wellington boot – which New Zealanders call "Wellies" – whenever possible. (The Wellington is the equivalent of what Americans call rain boots, bean boots or duck boots.)

The kids applauded when Meghan showed his strength and won the competition by throwing his red and white polka dot boot about a yard away from Harry's blue boot. For the victory, the duchess was rewarded with a trophy in the shape of a rain boot.
