Meghan Markle didn’t play typical baby shower games like the diaper change relay race or guessing the due date. Instead, the Duchess of Sussex opted for something more elegant and heartfelt.
According to Vanity Fair, Meghan decided to have a “flower-arranging lesson” with fellow guests. Fans got an inside look into the activity when Gayle King, a guest at the shower, shared details about the intimate event on “CBS This Morning.” King said, “I hope she won’t mind me sharing this because I’ve never seen anything like this at a baby shower … They had flower arranging, they brought in somebody to explain how to arrange flowers.” The talk show host explained that each guest got to make a vase filled with flowers, but for King, that wasn’t the best part.

Some may think this was too much for a shower, but Meghan worked with a business called, Repeat Roses to salvage the arrangements once completed, per The Daily Mail. The outlet reports Repeat Roses charges a heavy amount (in the thousands) for their services to “breakdown events and will then donate the flowers to patients in hospices, cancer treatment centers” and more. True to what many have said about the Duchess of Sussex, Markle wanted the arrangements to have a purpose even after her baby shower. King told the CBS Morning show, “It just speaks to who she is. She’s kind. She’s very generous. And a really, really sweet person.”
