Meghan Markle Names 1 Clothing Rule From Her Senior Royal Days She's Happy To Leave In The Past

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry pictured in January 2020Meghan Markle has admitted there’s one specific part of royal life she’s been quite happy to see the back of since stepping down from her role as a senior member of the family.The former Suits star married her husband, Prince Harry, in 2019, with the couple announcing the following year that they intended to give up their roles as senior royals and divide their time between the US and the UK.Since then, both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have repeatedly lifted the lid on their lives as part of the Royal Family in bombshell TV interviews, their Netflix documentary and Prince Harry’s revealing 2023 memoir Spare.And while promoting the latest season of her Netflix lifestyle series With Love, Meghan, she revealed there was one choice she was thrilled at no longer having made for her in the last few years.During an interview with Bloomberg, Meghan was asked if there was “an inherent tension in trying to be relatable while also being a duchess”.“No… I’m just being myself,” she responded. “I think, probably it was different several years ago, where I couldn’t be as vocal and had to wear nude pantyhose all the time.”Elaborating further on her aversion to nude tights, she continued: “Let’s be honest, that was not very myself. I hadn’t seen pantyhose since movies in the 80s when they came in the little egg. That felt a little bit inauthentic.“But that’s a silly example, but it is an example of when you’re able to dress the way you want to dress, and you’re able to say the things that are true, and you’re able to show up in the space really organically and authentically.”In 2022, Meghan admitted that she struggled with the limitations that were put on her wardrobe when she was still a senior royal.“Most of the time that I was in the UK, I rarely wore colour,” she said in the Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan. “There was thought in that.“To my understanding, you can’t ever wear the same colour as [the late Queen Elizabeth II] if there’s a group event. But then, you also shouldn’t be wearing the same colour as one of the other, more senior members of the family. So I was like, ‘well what’s a colour that they’ll probably never wear? Camel? Beige? White?’. So, I wore a lot of muted tones.“But it also was so I could just blend in. Like, I’m not trying to stand out here. So there’s no version of me joining this family and trying to not do everything I could to fit in. I don’t want to embarrass the family.”Meghan recently unveiled the second season of her Netflix lifestyle series, which has so far proved to be just as divisive with critics as the first.READ MORE:This Is Why Season 2 Of Meghan Markle's Netflix Show Is Being Slammed By CriticsMeghan Markle Has A Message For Critics Of Her Much-Maligned Netflix Series'I Was Not Well': Meghan Markle Opens Up About A Difficult Moment She's Never Shared Before
