Meghan Markle is reflecting on her typical morning routine of preparing her children for school.
The Duchess of Sussex discloses that her day begins as early as 6:30 a.m. when discussing Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet's timetables.
Speaking with her friend Jamie Kern Lima, the Duchess said: "This morning was different because Archie has a cold, so he's home from school, but I get up at 6.30am and gives me a minute to - I wish I could say I woke up and meditated, but I don't, I have the monitors on so I can hear both the kids.
"They get up around 7 a.m., so I allow myself a little time to either put on gym clothes, wash my teeth, get both of them up, dress them, get them downstairs, prepare breakfast, and then if I haven't done their lunch boxes the night before, do that.
She said, "I enjoy preparing lunch boxes; it makes me extremely happy, and writing a small note in their lunch boxes... If I don't have any meetings in the morning, I attempt to conduct school drop-off.
"They're at two separate institutions, so it's a large circuit. So, on drop-off mornings, I don't get home until 9 a.m. After that, I'll just leap into meetings.
The Duchess of Sussex admitted: "And then on other days then I'll wake up and get them all set and then our amazing nanny who's been with us for five years, she'll take them to school for us and then, yeah, we always try to..."
Meghan went on: "I know, that's morning, that's the morning, that gets you to 9am."
