She’s trying to keep calm and carry on.

Meghan Markle was spotted wearing an anti-stress patch on her wrist as the mother of two spends some time without the help of her husband, Prince Harry.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, was photographed on a make-up free stroll on Thursday in Montecito, California, while the Duke of Sussex, 38, is on a work trip in Asia, reports Page Six.

She noticeably accessorised her camel-coloured $2,498 Max Mara Rispoli coat and blue-and-tan printed $1,883 cashmere Hermès Rayures D’Ete shawl with a dark blue NuCalm biosignal processing disc.

The calming device “activates the parasympathetic nervous system” so that its user can have a “rapid return to a functional state (motor skills, attention, and full cognition) with no lingering effects or mental lethargy,” according to the product’s website.

A pack of 20 discs costs $123, while a set of 100 discs retails for $615.

It’s unknown whether Meghan feels she is going through a particularly high-stress time and her rep did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.

However, a source told the publication that “NuCalm is incredible and has nothing necessarily to do with stress.”

The couple shares a 4-year-old son, Prince Archie, and 2-year-old daughter, Princess Lilibet.

There have also been rumblings that the Sussexes were going through marital issues recently.

However, sources close to the pair told Page Six exclusively in July that any speculation of a looming break-up is false and those stories are “literally made up.”

Meghan and Harry have also had some turmoil with their business endeavours, as they famously parted ways with Spotify in June following a $29 million deal with the streaming giant.

An insider previously told The Post that execs thought the couple didn’t produce enough content to receive their full multimillion-dollar payout.

However, Markle, Harry and Spotify released a joint statement at the time that claimed the end of the partnership was “mutually agreed” upon by all parties involved.

A day after it was announced that the deal had been terminated, Spotify’s head of global sports strategy, Bill Simmons, called the Sussexes “lazy” and “f**king grifters.”

“I wish I had been involved in the ‘Megan and Harry leave Spotify’ negotiation,” he said during an episode of The Bill Simmons Podcast at the time.

Meghan was seen looking sombre shortly after. The former Deal or No Deal model has been honest in the past about her struggles with mental health.

In her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, the Archewell co-founder disclosed she had suicidal thoughts while working as a senior member of the royal family.

Meghan also opened up about her mental health issues at a gala in New York City in December 2022.

“We all need to, when we can, if we feel brave enough, to just speak honestly about your own experience,” told the crowd at the Ripple of Hope Awards.

“It gives other people space and the courage to do the same, but more than that to really feel like you’re not alone, because I think that is often what can be the largest hindrance when you feel that way, you don’t see a way out.”

Despite what Meghan may be going through now, she found some time to “shake it off” at Taylor Swift’s concert in Los Angeles earlier this week.

Page Six exclusively reported Wednesday that the actress was seen having a blast at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, the night prior with her British bestie Lucy Fraser.
