Whoops!

| Updated:

The Duchess of Sussex had a rare fashion blunder when a label was spotted hanging out of her red dress as she continued her royal tour with husband Harry.

Meghan, who is pregnant with her first child, looked effortlessly stunning in a red Self Portrait dress paired with a Christian Dior Clutch and blue Manolo Blahnik BB pumps as she arrived in Tonga hand-in-hand with Harry.

However, the dress’ label was hanging from the hem of Meghan’s dress, which matched the colour of the national flag of Tonga, as she showed off a glimpse of her growing baby bump.
