Meghan Markle’s bizarre staff request revealed in new interview
Even if there are only two people in the room, the request needs to be carried through, according to the new interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
The Duchess has arrived.
Meghan Markle’s staff announces the royal before she enters a room — even if there are only two guests.
During an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, writer Kaitlyn Greenidge said she and the Duchess of Sussex entered a New York City “grand” brownstone that belonged to one of Markle’s friends.
“When I enter, the house manager announces, ‘Meghan, Duchess of Sussex,’ even though we appear to be the only other two people in the house,” Greenidge wrote.

Elsewhere in the interview, Greenidge also said that someone announced Markle when she arrived at the La Brea Tar Pits, an active fossil-dig site and natural-history museum in Los Angeles, to meet with a group of girls from a local STEM school.
“A golf cart pulls up, the gravel crunching beneath its tires. ‘The Duchess of Sussex,’ someone in the scrum announces,” Greenidge wrote.
“Meghan descends, dressed in wide-leg trousers, a silk blouse, and a small pair of pavé-diamond studs by the Ukrainian brand Guzema,” she added.
“They were a gift from her husband, Prince Harry, picked up on a recent trip to Kyiv with his Invictus Games Foundation.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Markle opened up about giving herself “grace” when it comes to mistakes.
“You learn not to do it again,” she shared. “If it all goes swimmingly, you don’t learn from it. If you don’t learn anything, you’re not going to grow.”
Harry, 41, and Markle, 44, tied the knot in May 2018 and quit their royal duties two years later.
The couple, who have welcomed son Prince Archie, 6, and daughter Princess Lilibet, 4, now reside in a $14 million mansion in Montecito, California.
Though Markle and the Duke of Sussex left the royal family, they and their children were allowed to keep their titles.
In a March interview with People, the Suits alum said the Sussex name held a deeper significance since she became a mother.
“I love that that is something that Archie, Lili, [Harry] and I all have together. It means a lot to me,” she said of her family.
“I think as the kids get older, they’re so excited about, ‘Oh my gosh, Mama and Papa, how did you meet?’” Markle continued.
“I think that will come with time as they get older, but for right now a huge part of our love story is that we share the name Sussex.”
