Even though Meghan Markle is not on official maternity leave yet, she is stepping away from the limelight.
Kensington Palace confirmed that the Duchess has no public engagements scheduled for the remainder of March.

There are plenty of private meetings taking place. If she is to do something public, it would be announced, but there are none that are scheduled.

Meghan and Kate Middleton made headlines for their warm embrace, putting rumours of a Royal feud to an end.

Heathcliff O'Malley / POOL / AFP Royal biographer Duncan Larcombe explained at the time that Kate was free to pick and choose which Royal engagements she wanted to attend.
She did, however, make an appearance at Meghan's wedding in May, but that counts as a family affair, not a royal duty.
