They were also joined by Jessica Mulroney and Serena Williams for the night on the town in Manhattan following the "secret" baby shower with her inner circle.

Meghan looked chic in a £2,250 ($3,085) navy Victoria Beckham coat, black scarf, a pair of black satin boots as she arrived at the exclusive restaurant - which is also a favourite of Donald Trump's.

Her pals were seen earlier today arriving with blue gifts, along with a delivery of pink roses - as royal fans look for any hint on the baby's sex.

A pal said: “The trip is a lovely chance to catch up with friends and spend time in a city she loves.

“This will be the last time a lot of them will see Meg until after the baby is born so it’s nice to share precious moments.

“It’s been a relaxing visit. Nothing beats face time with your friends. Meg will be flying home refreshed and relaxed—and with a lot of new baby clothes.”

And best friends, including Jessica Mulroney, have organised a special baby shower party on Tuesday at an exclusive New York hotel.

Foodie Meghan, 37, has enjoyed exclusive private dining at her swanky hotel.

She was also spotted with stylist pal Jess, 39, at the French Ladurée cafe in New York’s SoHo district on Saturday, February 16, for macaroons and tea in one of the bakery’s private spaces.

A witness said: “They were having a lovely time, laughing and talking with each other.”

Meghan flew to see her best mates after enjoying a low-key Valentine’s Day meal with husband Harry, 33, on Thursday night.

The Sun revealed he’d taken a £26,000 private jet to make it to Norway and back in a day so he could spend the evening with his wife.

She and Harry will visit Morocco for a two-day visit on behalf of the British government.

A Palace spokesman said of the February 23 to 25 trip: “The Duke and Duchess are looking forward to the visit which will highlight the vital roles that girls’ education and youth empowerment are playing in, and shaping, modern Morocco.”
