Meghan Markle spoke at her close friend Oprah Winfrey’s book club session last night in California, where her husband Spare’s controversial memoir was proudly on display.

The duchess, 43, was one of several “light-filled” speakers who addressed the crowd at the Goodmothers bookstore and gathering space in Summerland, located just miles from where she lives in Montecito.

The star-studded event was attended by actor Marco Leone and author, professor and psychic medium Laura Lynne Jackson, who both highlighted Meghan on their Instagram stories.

Godmothers, co-owned by literary agent Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, just celebrated its grand opening weekend by hosting a series of events and “conversations” with celebrities and authors.

The bookstore appears to be promoting several popular books about celebrities, including Prince Harry’s memoir, Spare.

Meghan appeared at the event last night, on the eve of the second anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s death.

While it’s unclear what the duchess said in her speech, the crowd seemed to warm to Jackson’s praise of Meghan as one of the “light-filled speakers” of the night.

Godmothers, which wraps up its grand opening weekend with events today, is apparently proud of Meghan and Harry, whom the owner has hailed as a “local auteur.”
