Mohammed took to Twitter to share a picture she took with the pair, revealing that they spoke on "how to engage on issues we care about deeply: climate action, women’s economic empowerment, mental well-being, youth engagement and vaccine equity."

Mom-of-two Meghan wore a tan blouse and trousers with a Max Mara camel coat to keep herself warm in the New York chill; Harry kept it simple in a black suit and blue tie.

Taking to social media after Harry and Meghan's visit, owner Melba Wilson tweeted: "It was such an honor to officially welcome Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to Melba's!" 

She added: "I am so thankful for their commitment to donate $25k and hope to welcome them back soon. Thank you for dining with us! #sweetpotatopiehugs."
