In between the young royals speaking about their personal causes at the philanthopy-focused event, Markle spoke up in support of movements like Me Too and Time's Up.
“Women don’t need to find a voice," she said. “They have a voice. They need to feel empowered to use it, and people need to be encouraged to listen.”
“We’re seeing so many campaigns, Me Too and Time’s Up," she continued. "There is no better time than to really continue to shine a light on women feeling empowered and people really helping to support them, men included in that,It makes such a tremendous difference.”

The Royal Foundation was established to help Princes William and Harry advance their philanthropic projects, with Duchess Kate being added as a patron after her wedding. Markle will become the foundation's fourth patron after her marriage to Harry in May 2018, and teased her coming projects in the months ahead.
"I’ve just been here for three months, but it’s very important to hit the ground running," she said. "Even if it’s quietly behind the scenes, which is what I’ve focused my energy on thus far, it’s meeting with the right people and the right organisations and learning as much as I can so I can maximise the opportunity we have here to really make an impact."
