Meghan Markle has shared an emotional new video on Instagram following the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. Nearly brought to tears, the Duchess of Sussex spoke about a young girl affected by the disaster and her efforts to help.
“I was just told that something arrived that I had been waiting for,” Meghan begins, addressing the camera.
She recounts meeting a woman and her 15-year-old daughter in Altadena, California, while visiting with Prince Harry. Their home had been destroyed in the fires, leaving them with nothing.
Meghan shares: “Her mum told me that when they returned to see their home for the first time—right as we were meeting them—all she was hoping to find was the t-shirt from the Billie Eilish concert she had just gone to. She had left it in the washing machine or dryer.”

Tragically, their home, along with everything inside—including the washing machine and dryer—had been reduced to ashes.
Determined to help, Meghan sprang into action. “I thought of everyone I knew and sent a voice note, saying, ‘Please, can someone get this to Billie Eilish?’”
Panning the camera around, Meghan reveals signed merchandise and a lunch box from the singer. “You guys, I don’t even know what all this stuff means, but it’s signed for her,” she says, visibly touched.
