Thursday marked a great day for Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, who organized an event for her first charity project.
The 37-year-old celebrated the launch of "Together: Our Community Cookbook" at Kensington Palace, while taking the time to celebrate the women who inspired her.
And a woman who inspired her well before she became royal was by her side: her mother, Doria Ragland.
The former Meghan Markle arrived at the event, held in a tent on the palace grounds, flanked by her mother and husband, Prince Harry.
She was quickly joined by the women whose recipes fill the pages of the new recipe book and whose kitchens and families will benefit.
"Together: Our Community Cookbook" is a collection of more than 50 recipes written by women who lost their homes in the fire at the Grenfell Tower in London in June 2017. Seventy-two people died in the town. fire and 70 others were injured.
Recipe book recipes will benefit Hubb Community Kitchen, where fire-affected women have come together to prepare meals for their families, heal and support each other.
The project aims to allow the kitchen to stay open seven days a week and extend its reach. Before, the kitchen could only stay open a few days a week for lack of financial means.
In a speech without notes, the Duchess explained that "working on this project for nine months has been a wonderful job of love".
"I had just moved to London and felt so immediately embraced by the women in the kitchen," she said, according to USA Today. "Your warmth and kindness, and also to be able to be in this city and see in this small room how multicultural it is … I am so proud to live in a city that can have so much diversity."
Former actress "Suits" has been working on the cookbook since she married Prince Harry in May.
This happy occasion is the last time the public had the opportunity to see the Duchess alongside her proud mother, who looked just as proud of her daughter at the big event on Thursday.
