She’s Still Meg: The Heartwarming Story Behind Meghan Markle’s Name
Let’s talk about Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, who has stolen the hearts of millions around the globe. But here’s the thing—despite her royal title and all the glitz and glamour, she’s still the same person we’ve always known. In a recent interview with People, her royal wedding makeup artist, Daniel Martin, shared an incredible moment that reminds us of the real Meghan. He revealed how Meghan asked him to keep calling her by her real name, Meg, even after she became a duchess. Isn’t that just the sweetest thing?
Now, imagine being Daniel Martin, someone who’s been close to Meghan for nearly a decade. He admitted that he was unsure about how to address her after the wedding. “Do I bow to you? I don’t want to disrespect you, but I’ve known you for almost ten years,” he jokingly asked her. Meghan, being the down-to-earth person she is, laughed and replied, “I’m always going to be Meg. Meg.” That’s Meghan for you—someone who stays true to herself, no matter the circumstances. Daniel added, “Next time I see them, I’ll be respectful and follow protocol. But Meg is always going to be Meg, and that’s just how it is!”
The Day Meghan Became the Duchess of Sussex
On the morning of her royal wedding, Kensington Palace made an official announcement that Meghan and Harry would be known as Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. It was a historic day, and with it came new titles and responsibilities. Interestingly, Meghan also has the option to adopt the royal family's last name, Mountbatten-Windsor, making her Rachel Meghan Mountbatten-Windsor if she chooses. Sounds pretty regal, doesn’t it?
