Will Smith won Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture, and “The Harder They Fall” took home the award for Outstanding Motion Picture. During the non-televised NAACP Image Awards this week, several more winners were announced. Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is one of them.
Doria Ragland, Meghan Markle’s mother, attended the 53rd annual NAACP Image Awards on Saturday with her daughter and Prince Harry. Meghan and Harry accepted the NAACP’s President’s Award for their philanthropy. At the conclusion of her acceptance speech at the BET Awards, the Duchess of Sussex acknowledged her mother.
