Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a touching surprise visit to the sister of a teacher who was killed in a school shooting, before singing Happy Birthday to her in a heartwarming video.
Heroic Irma Garcia sacrificed her own life during the killing at Texas’ Robb Elementary School in May 2022 in a bid to allow her young students to get to safety.
In a tragic twist two days later, Irma’s husband, Joe, died from a broken heart.
Irma’s nephew, John, 22, took to social media to share photos of the royals’ visit to his social media as the overwhelmed relative said he could not believe how the Sussexes were so ‘loving and supportive’.
He said that having Harry and Meghan come into their home ‘felt like having family and friends over’ and that they fit ‘right in’.
John said the couple had even surprised his mother with a birthday cake – as videos showed a glowing Meghan smiling warmly as she held the white desert.
She and Harry – who were stood in the kitchen among their family – led the singing as they joined the heartwarming scene.
Meghan lit the candles on the cake and began the countdown for singing happy birthday before saying ‘with everyone singing too,’ to which a family member responded ‘It’s you first and then we’ll go after!’
The Duchess, 42, donned black skinny jeans and and a long-sleeve blouse, which she paired with gold jewellery.
The actress looked in high spirits as she held the decorated gateau, presenting it to John’s mother, with her husband Prince Harry smiling in the background.
