In an interview to CNN, Martinez revealed the visit from the Sussexes was a surprise to the family as he told the station: " It was such a beautiful experience, they’re so nice and compassionate, very down to earth, humble people.It was kind of by surprise, [Meghan] had called my mom one random day and dropped the news on us not too long ago that she was coming to visit the kids and of course we got so excited."

Martinez described the visit from the Sussexes as 'meaning the world' in another interview to Hello magazine, as he said: " It truly meant the world that Harry and Meghan showed up to visit the family, there were lots of tears of joy and heartfelt moments. They were the kindest, most humble people ever, it was like having family and friends over, having an amazing time together."

The appearance with the Garcia family came as Meghan and Harry were in Texas for Meghan to attend a panel for International Women’s Day. The Duchess of Sussex was named as one of the keynote panellists at the South by Southwest (SXSW) series of festivals and conferences.

On Friday (March 8) Meghan, along with Brooke Shields, Katie Couric, Errin Haines and Nancy Wang Yuen, formed a panel for a talk titled "Breaking Barriers, Shaping Narratives: How Women Lead On and Off the Screen". The panel was selected because all the women featured are thought to champion human rights and gender equality.
