Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, was among a string of "light-filled" speakers at an Oprah Winfrey book club session

It was also attended by actor Marco Leone, astrology and psychology expert Dr Jennifer Freed, and author, teacher and psychic medium Laura Lynne Jackson.

They gathered at the Goodmothers bookstore in Summerland, miles from Meghan's mansion in Montecito, California - with Laura hailing Meghan as one of the evening's "light-filled speakers".

It is unclear what Meghan said, but the event was billed as one of a series of "conversations" with guests being hosted by Godmothers, which is co-owned by literary agent Jennifer Rudolph Walsh.

The store is promoting celebrity books including Meghan's children's book 'The Bench' and Prince Harry's 'Spare' memoir.

It can currently be found at the front of the shop as part of its 'Hometown Heroes' shelf.

He's being billed as belonging to the community despite spending most of his life being raised in Britain before he quit the country with Meghan for a new life in the US.

The event was held on the eve of the second anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's death.

Meghan and Oprah, 70, have been friends for years, with the chat show host one of the guests at the duchess' wedding to Harry in May 2018.

Her and Harry's $14 million Montecito mansion is close to Oprah's home, and in 2021 Meghan famously sat down with the broadcaster and her husband for an 85-miniute interview in which she accused an unnamed member of the royal family of asking what colour their first child would be.
