New LA Residents Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Drop Off Food to Those in Need

Los Angeles food non-profit Project Angel Food took in some important new delivery volunteers last week: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The royal couple have recently relocated to Los Angeles after renouncing their official titles, and Wehoville found out that the pair were spotted dropping off food in West Hollywood to those in need. “We loved having them and they are the most down-to-earth people,” said Project Angel Food executive director Richard Ayoub. Good for them.
