The Duke and Duchess of Sussex put on a united front on Thursday when they stepped out at their first joint UK appearance since returning to the UK.
The couple - who tied the knot in 2018 - were all smiles while attending The Community Recording Studio (CRS) in St Ann's, Nottingham.

Harry and Meghan's new way of working
While the Duke and Duchess are not operating in any official royal capacity, their itinerary is incredibly similar to the kind of visit they would conduct before stepping back from royal duties in 2020.
Harry's interest in the community began with a private visit to St Ann’s in 2013, and there has since been backing for a programme, supported by The Royal Foundation, to help young people find alternatives to violence and crime.
It is believed Meghan has met young people supported by this scheme and has also had private visits to its girls’ nurture group.
Harry made a £1.1 million donation to BBC Children in Need, announced during his September 2025 visit, which is being used in CRS’s redevelopment, alongside targeted work by an organisation called Epic with young people affected by adverse childhood experiences.
Outings in the UK
Since starting their new life in August with their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, Harry and Meghan have been seen out in public separately on various occasions.
Harry kicked off his time in the UK stepping out at the Invictus Spirit Awards and the Well Child Awards.
Meanwhile, Meghan has been seen reconnecting with her close friends in the UK, visiting local pubs, enjoying lunch with Malala in Claridge's and reuniting with her wedding hairdresser, George Northwood.
