Duchess Meghan had a bit of moral support during the recording of her narration for the latest Disneynature documentary, Elephant.

According to People, Prince Harry accompanied Meghan to the studio where she worked on the film, available to stream today on Disney+.

"It was amazing having [Harry] there," filmmaker Vanessa Berlowitz told the outlet. "He had a connection to Botswana, of course." Co-director Mark Linfield added that the Duke of Sussex even gave his wife notes on her pronunciation during the recording session.

Though the documentary was recorded back in October, the film's release marks the first solo project from the Duchess of Sussex since stepping down alongside Harry as senior working members of the royal family. Meghan apparently met the documentary's filmmakers through mutual friends, with the filmmakers reaching out to the duchess later on to ask if she wanted to lend her voice to the production, knowing her fondness for Botswana, wildlife, and elephants in particular.

"She made it her own," said Elephant producer Roy Conli. "I always say, 'If you feel something, do it, make it organic.' She's such a diligent professional and she wanted to get it right. It was a delight all the way around."
