Meghan Markle and Billie Eilish are pros at pulling off memorable moments!
In a Tuesday, Feb. 4 Instagram post, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, revealed that she and the 23-year-old nine-time Grammy winner came together to help a teenage girl who lost everything in the recent Los Angeles wildfires.
“I was just told that something arrived that I have been waiting for,” the With Love, Meghan star said in a selfie video as she excitedly walked through her home.
Once in a room, she let out a sigh of relief after seeing a box filled with merch was waiting for her.
Meghan explained that “about two or three weeks ago,” she and her husband Prince Harry, 40, were in Altadena Calif., together and visited “a community where all the homes were left in ashes.”

She next shared that at the time, she met a mother who was surveying the damage of her home with her 15-year-old daughter.
“This mom had found a couple of things, [and] as I was talking to her, I turned around and I saw this young woman,” Meghan said, referring to the teen.
“She lives there and her mom shared something with me, and said that when they came back to see their house for the first time, which is as we were meeting them, that all she’d been looking for in her home was the T-shirt from the Billie Eilish concert that she had just gone to,” the Duchess of Sussex continued.
In the family’s hurry to evacuate, the teen had left the top in either the washing machine or dryer.

The actress and advocate admitted she did not know the “Birds of a Feather” singer personally but thought hard about which of her famous friends might.
While wearing her own cool sweatshirt — one that featured the names of her and Harry’s two children, Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3, in cursive on her collar — Meghan showed off what Eilish sent.
“You guys, I don’t even know what all this stuff means but it’s signed for her,” Meghan said as she showed merch with various designs.

After joking that she felt “really old,” Meghan sent a “huge thank you [to] Billie Eilish.”
“This is going to mean so much to her,” she continued, also thanking Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine and his wife Behati Prinsloo for getting her voice memo to the “Bad Guy” singer.
She concluded, “To everyone who is showing up for people in big and small ways to get through what’s happened in California, just thank you so much!”
