She added height to the look with pointed-toe heels and accessorized with a black clutch. 

Mindy, who lost 40lbs back in 2023, was also seen looking incredible in a floor-length black coat with a fur collar for another look later in the day.

While on the red carpet, Mindy showed off her slimmed-down physique in a ɴuᴅᴇ bustier underneath a pinstripe suit. 

The star accessorized with a silver necklace and gold rings. She wore dark lipstick and styled her raven tresses in loose waves.

It was Mindy’s first public outing after a clip of her from Meghan’s cookery show, With Love, Meghan, went viral.

In the video, Meghan insisted her surname is SusSєx as she corrected Mindy, who had referred to her as ‘Meghan Markle.’

In episode two of the show, the former royal, 43, was joined by Mindy as she showed her fellow mother how to host a children’s party.

As Meghan carefully demonstrated how to ᴀssemble a cucumber sandwich, the pair spoke about their favorite fast food growing up.

The Duchess of SusSєx called herself a ‘latchkey kid’ who ‘grew up with a lot of fast food and TV tray dinners’, listing off US chains Pollo Loco, Taco Bell and Jack In The Box.

But Mindy seemed to get under Meghan’s skin with her response, as she said: ‘I don’t think anyone in the world knows that Meghan Markle has eaten Jack In The Box and loves it.’

Trying to hide her frown with a smile, she replied: ‘It’s so funny you keep saying Meghan Markle, you know I’m SusSєx now.’

As Mindy looked confused, Meghan, who has only visited SusSєx once, continued: ‘You have kids and you go ‘No, I share my name with my children’.

‘I didn’t know how meaningful it would be to me but it just means so much to go ‘This is OUR family name. Our little family name’.

After being corrected, Mindy awkwardly responded: ‘Well, now I know and I love it.’

The late Queen Elizabeth bestowed the тιтles of Duke and Duchess of SusSєx on Prince Harry and Meghan for their wedding in 2018.

Since then the pair have only visited the county once when they hosted a number of engagements seven years ago.

Five years ago Harry and Meghan took a step away from their royal duties and moved to California, leading to calls for their тιтles to be stripped.

Meghan dropped her surname when she married Prince Harry, but as a member of the Royal Family, she now does not officially have one.

name is officially Meghan, Duchess of SusSєx.

Their children Archie and Lilibet were granted Prince and Princess тιтles following the death of Queen Elizabeth.

Now, living away from Royal life, Meghan has confirmed that the family have incorporated their тιтle as a surname.

Mindy and Meghan, who first met after The Office star appeared on Markle’s now-defunct Spotify podcast, Archetypes, reunited in Meghan’s kitchen to film the second episode.

The Duchess was teaching Kaling all of her tips and tricks for hosting a children’s birthday party, which included making a rainbow fruit salad and ladybug crostinis with tomatoes.

And, while the episode seemingly went off without a hitch as they successfully threw an adorable garden party in Markle’s backyard, there were some seemingly high-tension moments captured.

‘Mindy is greeted in the hallway, but the body language looks awkward,’ body language expert Judi James told DailyMail.com exclusively about Kaling’s entrance on the show.

‘There is an air kiss but it is overly-formal and Mindy bends her knees and pushes her pelvis back to avoid torso-touch,’ she continued.

Mindy stepped out in two other outfits on Wednesday  

After Mindy referred to Meghan as ‘Markle’, the Suits star corrected her.

‘Meghan keeps her eyes down on the sandwiches in a cut off ritual to hide her eye expression but her face contorts into a wince of pain and possible frustration as her voice rises to its highest ‘annoyed child’ pitch,’ James said.

‘Meghan turns to use eye contact and an ᴀssertively pleading eye expression with a clawed hand finger pinch of precision raised in the air,’ the expert continued.

She also noted that the Duchess ‘hunches her shoulders to make her point of correction even more emphatic, balling her hand into a fist and rolling it in front of her heart to point out that ‘it’s our family name.”

‘This is an emotive, serious looking correction which Mindy watched wearing a polite smile,’ James added.
