The @SussexRoyal Instagram account just revealed the never-before-seen pictures from the meeting, where Harry and Meghan made a "surprise visit," according to the caption. Markle is wearing leather leggings (believed to be Hatch "Night Out" leggings) and a floral patterned coat (believed to be from William Vintage), according to fashion blog Meghan's Mirror. The then three-months-pregnant duchess wore her hair in a middle-parted low ponytail with minimal makeup.

The announcement comes as part of a new project helmed by the Fab Four: The Sussexes and the Cambridges unveiled Shout, an initiative geared toward mental health awareness and crisis response.

The new project is an extension of the Crisis Text Line in the U.K. that offers free and confidential mental health support via text, and is a continuation of the Heads Together campaign that was launched by William, Kate and Harry back in 2016. The Sussexes, and particularly the Cambridges, have been very outspoken about their efforts to support mental health awareness.

All hail the leather-loving duchess.
