It was a royal reaction.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a sweet impression at David Foster 40th anniversary celebration for his Foundation in Victoria, Canada over the weekend — with pregnant singer Pia Toscano telling Page Six about a touching moment between the Duchess of Sussex and her unborn baby.
Toscano, who has worked with Foster since 2017, performed “Feeling Good” at the star-studded event.
After, when she approached Harry and Markle at the head table, Toscano tells us the As Ever creator touched her stomach, and the couple hugged her and offered congratulations.
“This is the most beautiful time of your life,” Meghan told her. Toscano also recalled gentleman Harry moving a chair for her.
Markle, 44, and Harry, 41, have two children. The couple welcomed son Archie in May 2019 and daughter Lilibet in June 2021.
Markle has been candid about the realities of pregnancy and motherhood.
During her first pregnancy, she complained that the sleeplessness felt like “jet lag,” recalling being awake doing yoga at 4:30 a.m.
She later spoke about the particular vulnerability of being pregnant while under intense public scrutiny. She also publicly revealed that she suffered a miscarriage in 2020, writing movingly about the experience and the grief she and Harry endured.
More recently, however, Markle has spoken warmly about motherhood.
In 2025, she described it as “better than I ever expected” and said being separated from Archie and Lilibet for nearly three weeks during Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral left her “not well.”
Singer Sydnie Christmas, the 2024 “Britain’s Got Talent” winner, was also charmed by the royals at the event.
She called Harry a “very kind soul,” with a “kind face, kind eyes,” and said Markle “looked like she knew everybody” and “like she was having the best time.”
Toscano, an “American Idol” alum, has a new single, “Redirected,” and is expecting her first child in December. Christmas has a new single, “Spirit,” coming in September.
The three-day celebration raised a staggering $14.5 million for the David Foster Foundation, which provides financial support to Canadian families with children in need of life-saving organ transplants.
Bill Gates, Adam Levine, Josh Groban and CeeLo Green also attended.
