Meghan Markle tells Ellen Degeneres about Toronto Halloween party with Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank
Meghan Markle has revealed that she and Prince Harry donned Halloween costumes for one final big night out before their lives changed forever.
Meghan Markle has told Ellen DeGeneres that she and Prince Harry dressed up in Halloween outfits with his cousin Princess Eugenie and her now husband for one final night out before their relationship became public.
In a preview clip for the interview - which drops in full this morning in Australia - the 40-year-old said Harry had visited her in Toronto where she was filming Suits when they decided to go incognito for a night on the town.
“[Harry] came to see me in Toronto and our friends and his cousin [Princess] Eugenie and now her husband Jack [Brooksbank] – they came as well,” the former Suits star told the 63-year-old in a preview clip of her Ellen interview, according to Fox News. “The four of us snuck out in Halloween costumes to just have one fun night on the town before it was out in the world that we were a couple.”
“It was a post-apocalypse theme so we had all of this very bizarre costuming on and we were able to just have one final fun night out,” the duchess added.
Meghan and Harry, 37, met on a blind date in July 2016, before their relationship began being speculated in September that year. It wasn’t until November, shortly after Halloween, that Harry confirmed their relationship when he issued a press release detailing his concerns about the press’ “abuse and harassment” toward his new partner.
But Halloween as a married couple and parents to Archie and Lilibet looked very different this year.
“We were home and we saw you guys which was great, but we wanted to do something fun for the kids and they were just not into it at all,” Markle shared. “Archie was a dinosaur for maybe five minutes. Not even five minutes.”
As for their baby girl, who was born in June of this year, she was “a little skunk.”
“Like Flower from Bambi,” Markle boasted.
In another preview clip released on Wednesday, Markle revealed how she used to drive to the Warner Bros. lot, where Ellen is taped, early in her acting career.
“I would park at gate three and scoot over … The security guards would always say, ‘Break a leg. I hope you get it.’ I think they probably said it to everybody. … Driving here today was very different,” Markle admitted.
The British royal family member said she used to drive an old Ford Explorer Sport, and at one point, the key stopped working so she couldn’t open the door on the driver’s side.
“So after auditions, I would park in the back of the parking lot and I would open the trunk, climb in, pull it shut behind me and crawl over all of my seats to get out that’s how I would come to and fro,” she laughed.
