Duchess Meghan Is Chic in a Linen Dress and Sun Hat in a New Birthday Portrait
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Happy birthday, Duchess Meghan! The Duchess of Sussex is celebrating her 44th birthday today, August 4, and to mark the occasion, her lifestyle brand, As Ever, shared a never-before-seen portrait of her. 'Celebrating the woman behind it all. She pours her heart, vision & magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her! Happy birthday to our founder @meghan 🥂,' a new post on the brand's Instagram reads. In the black-and-white photo, Meghan is seen wearing a spaghetti-strap linen dress with buttons running down the middle, and an ample, flowy skirt. Ever the minimalist, she accessorizes the look with a white wide-brim sunhat, a diamond tennis necklace, and her go-to arm stack: some gold bracelets, her Cartier Tank watch (which once belonged to Princess Diana), and her wedding band and diamond engagement ring from Prince Harry. Her hair is down in her signature messy bun and she flashes a wide smile. While she has been very active on Instagram since her return to social media last year, Meghan has not shared her birthday plans. Still, it's likely she is spending quality time with husband Prince Harry and their two kids, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. 'A confession I can share with you today is that I'm the happiest I've ever been,' Meghan said at the Time100 Summit earlier this year. 'To have a husband and a partner who is so supportive and kids who are healthy and happy, I never imagined at this point I would feel so happy and grateful, and I really do.'

The Watches We Love: Cartier Tank
The Cartier Tank is the result of such extraordinary vision on behalf of its creator that its core elements and foundational design have remained in place for over 100 years. A watch that evolves and yet remains forever true to that original vision, the Cartier Tank unquestionably belongs in horology's highest tier. Welcome to the first instalment of The Watches We Love, a new series for Man of Many's Digital Editions in which we'll pick one of horology's most defining timepieces every quarter to explore how it came to be, what makes it special, and whose wrists it has adorned most strikingly over the years. For this first outing, there were a number of highly qualified candidates in the running, but ultimately, the Cartier Tank has the honour of taking the stage for The Watches We Love's debut. Perhaps it was the outstanding new releases launched at Watches and Wonders 2025, the sheer timelessness and instant recognisability of that extraordinary design, or the simple fact that I really want one that gave the Tank the edge over the competition. Whatever the reason, there's no timepiece more deserving of a retrospective, as we look at its journey thus far and the vibrant and compelling modern incarnations that ensure the Tank is never out of the conversation. While a watch that has many, many imitators, none match the original for sheer elegance, timelessness, and horological significance. And while it has come in a wide range of subtly different forms over the years, the Tank has invariably embodied an X factor that others simply cannot replicate. From here, we'll dive into the origins of this incredible line, calling out particular favourites along the way. Here we go…

Meghan Markle attends TIME100 Summit in New York City
Meghan Markle attended the 2025 TIME100 Summit in New York City, where she glided onto the stage in a Ralph Lauren suit that turned heads. The Duchess wore a tailored silk-linen jacket (Ralph Lauren's Russell Silk-Linen Twill, retailing for about R47,000). She paired the suit with extra-wide-leg trousers that flowed with every step. Her crisp white blouse and matching belt, also Ralph Lauren, completed the ensemble. Meghan Markle also wore classic cognac Manolo Blahnik pumps that added polish to the entire look, according to WWD . Gold Tabayer earrings and a Cartier Tank watch-once owned by Princess Diana, also brought subtle sparkle and a nod to royal legacy. Prince Harry, ever the supportive partner, looked sharp in a navy suit. He watched from the audience as Meghan took the stage with Time's CEO, Jessica Sibley. The royal couple's relationship with TIME runs deep, dating back to their 2021 feature as two of the world's most influential people. Meghan Markle's style has evolved since moving to California, as she's embraced relaxed, breezy luxury, favouring brands like Heidi Merrick, Frame, and Reformation. But Ralph Lauren remains a favourite for public appearances. The Duchess has had a busy few weeks. She recently launched her lifestyle brand, 'As Ever', and has released new podcast episodes. She also starred in her Netflix series, With Love, Meghan . The show was so popular that it's already been greenlit for a second season by Netflix. Meghan Markle's fashion choices reflect her current ethos: thoughtful, refined, and unbothered by fleeting trends. On stage, Meghan charmed the crowd with candid 'confessions' and heartfelt reflections on leadership and innovation. The Duchess look at the TIME100 Summit proves that you don't need loud logos or flashy designs to make a statement- sometimes, quiet luxury speaks the loudest.
