Meghan Markle recently reflected on her 2019 trip to New York City during the grand opening of Godmothers, a bookstore near her California home. She described the experience of sneaking away incognito to watch her friend Serena Williams play at the U.S. Open, emphasizing her discomfort and craving for safety during her time as a working royal. Markle recalled wearing a cap and keeping her head down while visiting bookstores, which she found to be a sanctuary. The event was star-studded, with prominent guests including Oprah Winfrey, who co-founded the bookstore with Jennifer Rudolph Walsh and Victoria Jackson. Markle expressed gratitude for the space, noting its importance for individuals seeking solace through literature. The bookstore features works by both Markle and Prince Harry, including his memoir 'Spare'.
