Meghan Markle made a rare public appearance at Kerry Washington’s birthday party, surprising fans as she joined an intimate girls' night celebration.
The Duchess of Sussex was briefly spotted in a video shared by actress Jessica Alba on Instagram, where she sat alongside Washington and other guests. The video captured Alba approaching the group while holding a plate of donuts topped with sparklers, lighting up the celebratory moment for the Scandal star, who turned 48.
Alba, 42, shared details of the evening on Instagram, writing: "Happy Born Day to my girl @kerrywashington. There’s nothing like that ‘fill your cup’ type of girls’ night. Under the energy of the #NewMoon in Aquarius, we came together for a beautiful ceremony led by Jill, founder of @spiritdaughter.”
She continued: "New moons are a time for fresh starts, setting intentions, and manifesting new possibilities—and this night was just that. We connected, released what no longer serves us, and tapped into our power and highest vibration."
Markle’s low-key appearance at the gathering quickly caught fans’ attention, as she has maintained a relatively private presence in recent months. The former Suits actress, 42, is known for her strong friendships in Hollywood, and her attendance at Washington’s birthday further solidifies her close ties with A-list celebrities.
The video, featuring Meghan Markle’s surprise appearance, has since gone viral, sparking discussions among fans about her latest social outings.
