Meghan Markle Makes Surprise Appearance At Memorial To Honour Victims Of Texas School Shooting


Meghan Markle made a surprise appearance in Uvalde to pay tribute to the victims of a school shooting in Texas.

The Duchess of Sussex was pictured on Thursday, May 26, laying a bouquet of white roses at a makeshift memorial outside the Uvalde County Courthouse, not far from the scene of the shootings at Robb Elementary School.

As a mother of two, Meghan took the trip in a “personal capacity” to offer condolences and support the grieving community in person, the spokesperson said.

Her visit came two days after an 18-year-old gunman opened fire in a Uvalde elementary school Tuesday, killing 19 children and two teachers in a fourth-grade classroom.

Markle’s visit to the small community was unannounced and came as a surprise to the town.

This is not Markle’s first appearance at a memorial of shooting victims.

In 2019, Markle, accompanied by her husband, Prince Harry, paid tribute to victims of the Christchurch, New Zealand, massacre, in which a gunman opened fire on two mosques.
