The 43-year-old, who also sported her favourite $6,360 (£5,000) Cartier Love Bracelet, had her glossy brunette tresses styled into her trademark low bun for the event by hair stylist Hector, who goes by @hectorssworld on Instagram.

Meghan added a sentimental eternity ring from Lorraine Schwartz to her ensemble, which was gifted to her by Prince Harry to celebrate a year of marriage. The stones on the gold band hold the birthstones of both Harry, Meghan and baby Archie’s feature on the underside of the ring, out of public view. 

Makeup artist Daniel Martin, who did Meghan’s make up for her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018, carried out the royal’s beauty regime yesterday evening, completing the glowy look off with a touch of pink lip gloss. 

Meghan and husband Prince Harry, 40, were part of the Tribute Host Committee Chairs for the event, though he was not present on the red carpet. Harry was in New York at the annual DealBook Summit, where he revealed that he and wife Meghan Markle have no plans to return to the UK with Archie and Lilibet. 

He said said his focus was on “being the best husband and the best dad that I can be” – and claimed that due to security concerns in Britain there are things his two children ‘undoubtedly wouldn’t be able to do in the UK’. 

Former Suits star Meghan was at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel to cheer on Perry, 55, as the Paley Center for Media honored the visionary director, actor and philanthropist with a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of his career. Perry was also the recipient of the Paley Honors Award at the soirée.

The actress and her husband have a close friendship with the billionaire filmmaker, who is the godfather of their three-year-old daughter, Lilibet.

In September, Meghan and Harry — who have reportedly taken a ‘twin track’ approach to public appearances, that will see them doing more things on their own rather than together — attended Perry’s star-studded birthday bash with Oprah.
