Mom and dad's night out! Meghan Markle and Prince Harry got all dolled up to attend an event in New York City on Wednesday, November 10.
The two were all smiles as they walked hand in hand on the red carpet outside of the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum.
Before the brunette beauty, 40, went inside, she told reporters, "I'm always proud of [Harry]."
The mom-of-two looked gorgeous in a red, V-neck gown, while her hubby wore a black suit, which had a poppy on it — a symbol of remembrance for veterans and those who served in the U.K.
As The Royal Observer previously reported, the 37-year-old will present the Intrepid Valor Awards to five service members, veterans and military families "living with the invisible wounds of war."
"The Intrepid Museum's Salute to Freedom gala recognizes extraordinary leadership and honors the brave men and women who serve in defense of our nation," the statement said.
"We are extremely proud to bestow the inaugural Intrepid Valor Awards to five incredible individuals who have gone above and beyond the call of duty and persevered through extraordinary circumstances," Susan Marenoff-Zausner, president of the Intrepid Museum, added. "It is a core tenet of our institution to be there for our service members and veterans, who are always there for all of us. One of the ways we fulfill this commitment is by offering meaningful programs that help veterans reintegrate into civilian life and build connection and community, including ones that specifically address mental health."
She added, "We are so grateful to Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex for honoring and amplifying the stories of these heroes and helping to raise awareness for mental health support for our men and women in uniform."
The red-headed royal served in the Army for 10 years and even created the Invictus Games "for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women, both serving and veterans."
The pair were last in the Big Apple in September when they attended the Global Citizen Live event, in addition to meeting public figures.
