Harry and Meghan visit UN amid world leaders meeting

UNITED NATIONS: Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, met on Saturday with a top UN official amid the world body's biggest gathering of the year.
The royals came to UN headquarters to speak with deputy secretary-general Amina Mohammed. All three were due to appear later on Saturday at the Global Citizen citizen concert in New York's Central Park.
"It was a lovely meeting," Meghan said as the couple left the UN headquarters.
She and Harry are set to press for vaccine equity during the star-studded, 24-hour concert. It features performances staged in locations from New York to Paris to Lagos, Nigeria, and Seoul, South Korea.
The UN is in the midst of the annual General Assembly gathering of world leaders, though the couple didn't participate in the speeches in the assembly hall.
Meghan Markle had been involved with the UN women's agency, becoming an "advocate for political participation and leadership" for several years. Harry visited the children's agency Unicef in New York in 2010.
Earlier this week, Harry and Meghan visited a New York City school, the World Trade Center's centerpiece tower and the September 11 museum, among other stops in New York.
