During her speech, Meghan called her mum her main inspiration adding that life is often "quite complex".
Doria was the only member of Meghan's family present at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Royal Wedding in 2018, where she looked every inch the proud mother.
"For me I find inspiration in so many of the strong women around me," the Duchess said.
"My mother being one of them. Life is full of surprises and can be quite complex.'"
As she took to the stage in the city of Cali's theatre, Meghan addressed the crowd in Spanish prompting a series of cheers from a delighted crowd.
The Duchess then pretended to wipe sweat from her forehead before telling them how thrilled she was to be there.

During her speech, Meghan also paid tribute to Prince Harry for being a "great testament to the role of men" and allowing her to know her voice is heard.
Meghan said: "We work incredibly well together as a team, but as my husband is great testament to the role of men in this of empowering women - of allowing them to know that their voices are heard, starting at a young age all the way through adulthood, is key."
She continued: "For us and the work that we do with our Archewell Foundation, certainly the work that we do as parents, as I do as a mother, is ensuring that young girls feel as though their voices are being heard.
"And also that young boys are being raised to listen and to hear those young women as well. And the same goes for adult women and men."
