Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have decided to bring five-month-old Archie to only one official engagement during their royal tour in southern Africa, but the little royal has apparently been at the center of all the planning.

During an interview during her events yesterday, the Duchess of Sussex was asked about her first work trip as a family of three. “We’re doing well,” she said, which you can see in the video below. “I think the schedule—they have been very kind to me, because everything is based around Archie’s feed times. So it’s a full plate, but we’re making it work. It’s worth it.”

She also revealed that she’s really missed her husband while he’s been on a solo leg of the tour. “It’s my first time being in [South Africa] … and Harry has continued on in a couple [of] other countries,” Markle said. “We are reuniting today, which I can’t wait for, I miss him so much!”

The duchess also spoke about the importance of seeing the work that so many are doing around one of her most important causes: the empowerment of women and girls.

“It’s been very important to me for a long time to focus on women’s and girls’ rights and especially their empowerment,” she said. “So to see this from afar and then to see the work that is being done on the ground, I think what’s really key is to focus on the work that needs to be done, but also how much incredible work is being done and to be able to be hear and support those people who are really actively working to champion the rights of women and girls.”

The Sussex family wraps up their tour later today and will fly back to London tonight. Next on the schedule: They’re currently taking on a British publication for what the royal family says was the illegal use of a letter Markle sent to her father after the royal wedding.
