Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex looked enthralled as she was greeted by two beautiful dogs during an engagement in Dublin.

Prior to joining the royal family, the 36-year-old would frequently post photos of her two dogs – Guy and Beagle – on her now-deleted Instagram account.

So perhaps it’s no surprise the dog-loving duchess looked so happy to meet Bród and Síoda, the two gorgeous Bernese Mountain dogs owned by Ireland’s president, Michael D. Higgins.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s visit to Ireland was at the request of the government, and came just a few months after they visited Northern Ireland as an engaged couple.

It’s been a busy week for the couple so far, starting with an appearance at the christening of Prince Louis at The Chapel Royal, St James’ Palace on Monday.
