Meghan Markle is moved to tears at emotional charity event honoring friend’s late son

“We are endlessly inspired by how you use your voice,” she added, as Markle began to cry. “It’s the greatest honor that you chose to celebrate the Alliance for Children’s rights … we love you so much.”

The “Suits” alum took to her Instagram Stories to share that she was “proudly” supporting the George Zajfen Tennis Tournament alongside a selfie of her with Kelly and George’s twin sister, Lily Zajfen.

Markle, who shares Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, with Harry, also shared a video of Lily running over to the “Spare” author and excitedly hugging him.

“Our other favorite Lily,” the mom of two wrote atop the clip.

Since Kelly and her husband, Julian Zajfen, lost their son, Markle has been supporting her close friend by attending numerous charities and joining her in fundraising efforts.

In April 2024, the As Ever founder and her former “Suits” co-star Abigail Spencer attended Kelly’s Alliance of Moms charity event and modeled graphic T-shirts that give back to young parents who have experienced foster care.

And that October, the longtime friends attended the Children’s Hospital LA Gala together, walking the green carpet in support of CHLA and the “extraordinary care” they have provided to Lily, who suffers from heart issues.

Last month, Kelly gave a rare insight into Markle’s “nurturing” nature.

“I’ve actually known her for almost 20 years,” the non-profit co-founder wrote on her Instagram Story during a Q&A at the time.

“She even came to my wedding (15 years ago!), and she’s been the most amazing, nurturing, fun, loving human. She’s been by my side, especially since Georgie died, and I cherish our friendship very much.”
