Then they were off to Consular House in central Nuku'alofa for a private audience with His Majesty King Tupou VI and Queen Nanasipau-u. Meghan looked like a Greek goddess in a Theia gown.

The white bridal-inspired gown by Theia was floor-length with cap sleeves and beaded detailing on the shoulders. Duchess Meghan wore the dress with an heirloom she wore on her wedding day, an aquamarine ring that once belonged to Princess Diana.

She also wore her Aquazzura Deneuve heels and further accessorized with a clutch bag by Givenchy and earrings by Birks. The Duchess styled her hair in a bun.

The brand is done under Irish creative director Don O'Neill. The dress was fitting for Meghan as the brand held the same beliefs as the Duchess.
