### Meghan Markle Stuns in Red at Children’s Hospital Gala

Meghan Markle made a captivating appearance at the 2024 Children's Hospital Los Angeles Gala on October 5, leaving attendees in awe. The Duchess of Sussex, 43, chose a striking cherry red Carolina Herrera gown, a fashionable choice she last wore during one of her concluding royal duties alongside Prince Harry in 2021.

The event was graced by Meghan’s elegance as she opted for a minimalist style, with her hair down in soft waves, paired with open-toed heels and minimal jewelry. Her appearance was particularly meaningful as she shared moments on the red carpet with Kelly Zajfen, a mother who endured the heart-wrenching loss of her 9-year-old son Georgie to a sudden illness in 2022. Meghan, herself a mother to Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3, also took the opportunity to pose with Paul S. Viviano, president of Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

In her remarks to reporters, Meghan expressed a heartfelt sentiment, saying, "From my standpoint, as a mother, no one wants to be in a position where you need to go to a place like this, but if you have to, the best place in the world you could go would be Children's Hospital L.A." She highlighted the hospital's commendable work, stating, "The staff is incredible and the amount of work they do for families that really could not afford this level of care is something I think should never be overlooked."

The surprise appearance by Meghan Markle not only dazzled the gala attendees but also shed light on the invaluable efforts of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and its dedicated staff.
