Meghan Markle visited a womens center in Vancouver, Canada, on Tuesday in her first public engagement since last weeks shock announcement that she and husband Prince Harry would step back as senior members of the royal family.

The Duchess of Sussex discussed issues affecting women in the community during her visit to the Downtown Eastside Womens Centre , according to a Facebook post shared by the organization.

Look who we had tea with today, the center captioned a picture:

The center whose mission is to provide a safe , non-judgmental environment for women from all walks of life, who live and/or work in the Downtown Eastside did not immediately reply to HuffPosts request for further information about the visit.

It came, however, amid heightened scrutiny of Meghan and Harry following their decision to split time between the United Kingdom and Canada and work to become financially independent. Meghan travelled to Canada with the couples son Archie following the announcement.
