Meghan Markle celebrates her first birthday as a member of the royal family and as a married woman this weekend. The Duchess of Sussex constitutes 37 on Saturday, and people expect Prince Harry to plan something special for his big day. Ofcourse, he will. But as a king, Meghan is likely to receive many other gifts from fans and loved ones around the world - and he has already been sent first. It is a lovely gift, and it is something that fits perfectly with her beliefs and passions. The human rights organization was sent by PETA to Meghan with £ 290 designer handbag Alexandra K.
The bag is completely cruelty-free and made with vegan leather, and it even has a gold badge on the front which proudly states: "This bag is animal cruelty free and vegan."
Speaking to OK! magazine , PETA director Elisa Allen said: "PETA believes this animal-friendly bag is absolutely perfect for the Duchess, as she is mostly vegan and cares about animals and the environment – in sharp contrast to the leather industry, which, in partnership with the meat trade, kills over 1 billion animals every year.
"Chances are that this gorgeous handbag will inspire the Duchess to embrace vegan fashion and leave all animal skins out of her wardrobe, as she's already done with fur.
"PETA hopes the gift will encourage the royal family and its fans alike to embrace compassionate brands like Alexandra K and to steer clear of cruelly obtained animal skins."
Known for her polished, contemporary approach to dressing, Meghan has increasingly become a major fashion figure, with everything from her clothing choices to her accessories attracting global attention.
And this birthday gift certainly fits the Duchess’s understated yet sophisticated aesthetic.
What do you think of Meghan’s first royal birthday gift?
