Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made one promise to fans before logging off their Sussex Royal Instagram account for good. “As we all find the part we are to play in this global shift and changing of habits, we are focusing this new chapter to understand how we can best contribute,” they wrote in a caption on March 30. “While you may not see us here, the work continues.”

These were clearly not just words. Since moving to Los Angeles in March, the low-key royal couple has been volunteering with Project Angel Food, an L.A. organization that prepares and delivers healthy meals to those affected by COVID-19 and other illnesses.

“They told us they heard our drivers were overloaded and wanted to volunteer to lighten the drivers’ workload,” Project Angel Food’s executive director, Richard Ayoub, told Entertainment Tonight. The couple reportedly followed all social distancing guidelines, staying six feet away from others, and wore masks and gloves. “I am blown away that they chose us. They care about our vulnerable population,” Ayoub said. “Our clients are most at risk to contract the coronavirus, having compromised immune systems including heart disease, lung disease, diabetes, and most are over the age of 60.”

Prince Harry also recently joined a video call with parents and medical workers associated with WellChild, an organization providing care to seriously ill children and young people in the U.K.

“[Meghan and Harry] felt helpless reading about everything going on and wanted to get out and contribute,” a source told People on April 23.

Another source told People that “they only leave their house for charity work.” Makes sense!

Otherwise, life in L.A. has reportedly been “liberating” for Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and baby Archie. “They order from Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s, and they don’t have a chef right now, so Meghan often cooks,” a source told Us Weekly this week.

We stan an altruistic couple!
