01 November 2018. Prince Harry and Meghan bid farewell to NZ after a whirlwind final day in Rotorua. Video / NZ Herald

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex borrowed Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex's puffer jacket as they visited a forest in New Zealand yesterday, two days after he was first spotted wearing it.

Meghan, 37, wore the Norrøna Oslo Lightweight Down850 jacket, priced at $762, as the couple visited the Redwoods Tree Walk in Rotorua on the last day of the royal tour, the Daily Mail reports.

Harry, 34, previously wore the puffer jacket when they visited Abel Tasman National Park, on the South Island, earlier in the week.

The Duke paired his puffer jacket with grey chinos and tan desert boots, while the Duchess wore a blue raincoat by Cornish brand Seasalt on Monday.

For the forest visit yesterday, the Duchess — who is expecting her first child in the northern spring — covered up in Harry's Norrøna jacket after changing out of the bespoke Givenchy pleated skirt she wore for a walkabout in Rotorua's Goverment Gardens.

She finished off the causal look with a pair of black flats from Californian brand Birdies, as well as Boh Runga gold earrings gifted to her by New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.

As they left the forest, Harry told reporters "It's been great — thanks guys", to conclude the last engagement of the royal tour.

The couple will fly back to London today, following their 16-day tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand.

The last day of the royal tour proved to be a treat for fans, who quickly took to social media to comment on Meghan borrowing Harry's jacket for the forest walk.

Instagram fan account harry_meghan_updates wrote: "You're only married, when you shared jackets.. So sweet"

You’re only married, when you shared jackets..or so♥️😄So sweet😍Meghan wore Harry’s jacket! —————————————— #update The couple then traveled to Redwoods Treewalk Rotorua. The treewalk is a 700m-long walkway of suspension bridges between 117-year-old Redwood trees. The forest is also the home to a thriving mountain biking community that draws people of all ages to the Redwoods. The Duke and Duchess learnt more about the forest’s history as they took on the tree walk, and then met invited representatives of the local biking community under the forest canopy.

Another fan commented: "I love how it's a tiny bit too big for her! so cute!!"

Referring to Meghan's now defunct lifestyle blog, one social media posted: "She always said on the Tig that you could take your boyfriend's shirt and style it as your own. This is so adorable."

Meghan is a fan of the oversized or "borrowed" look, having previously worn the 'Husband' shirt by her designer friend Misha Nonoo during her first public appearance with Harry at the Invictus Games in Toronto last year.
