Prince Harry calls Oprah Winfrey his 'fairy godmother' in special tribute

Godmothers is located in Summerland, near Montecito, where Harry and Meghan live with their children, Archie and Lilibet.

The Sussexes enjoyed an evening with "friends and family" of literary agent Jennifer Rudolph Walsh and cosmetics star Victoria Jackson.

Harry and Meghan embraced old friend Oprah Winfrey and brushed shoulders with A-listers including Ellen DeGeneres, Jane Lynch and Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos.

The royal couple arrived in a "darkened Range Rover" and warmly greeted other guests at the venue.

After Walsh and Jackson shared some brief words with their audience, Meghan, 43, was heard shouting a "Woo!".

The duchess donned a chic Ralph Lauren top and matching white trousers for the occasion.

Photos from the event showed a grinning and glamorous duchess hugging the talk show host who interviewed them for their bombshell 2021 broadcast.

Prince Harry, 39, played a part in deciding the bookshop's name, according to reports in Town & Country.

This is because the duke, at his own book party in Beverley Hills, thanked Winfrey, Walsh and Jackson for being his "fairy godmothers".

As a result, Harry's memoir Spare was displayed proudly and boldly at the store, along with Meghan's children's book, The Bench.

Winfrey's sensational interview with Prince Harry and Meghan, fresh off the heels of their resignations as senior royals, rocked The Firm when it aired in 2021.

It firmly cemented the infamous American talk show host, 70, who attended their wedding in 2018, as an ally of the Sussexes amid their rift with King Charles and the Prince and Princess of Wales.

"I support them 1,000 per cent," she had said of the pair's move away from the UK.
