This is the moment heavily pregnant Meghan Markle laughs as a woman affectionately calls her a "fat lady".

The Duchess of Sussex was on a visit to animal welfare charity Mayhew, in Kensal Green, when she was introduced to Gothrine McEachrom, known as Peggy.

On her introduction to Meghan, Peggy told her: "May God always bless you."

After Meghan thanked Peggy, she continued: "You're welcome, all the time, and you're a fat lady."
