Afterwards, the Duke and Duchess took part in a cooking activity with children from disadvantaged backgrounds, with awarding-winning Chef Moha, known for reinventing Moroccan cuisine. The organisation enables children from under-privileged backgrounds to learn more about cooking traditional Moroccan food.

Crown Prince Moulay Hassan, Prince Moulay Rachid, Princess Lalla Hasna and Princess Lalla Meryem a were also present at the Tea.
That is such a lovely blue dress the Duchess is wearing! I have really liked her look during this trip. Her gowns have been very elegant and very becoming. She must be exhausted, though! I think she must be in her last trimester, so she should take it easy when comes back. By the look on the King’s face- and the fact that he and Prince Harry might have coordinated their suits!- it appears like this visit was a resounding success. Well done!
