Fans have been left amazed by a newly unearthed photo of Meghan Markle at her high school formal which shows the royal has barely aged a day.

What Christmas is like with the Royal family

In an old image posted online of Prince Harry’s future wife, Meghan Markle, 16, can be seen beaming as she poses with then-boyfriend Luis Segura.

At the time, Meghan, now 38, was attending Immaculate Heart High School, according to The Sun.

For the 1997 dance, she chose to wear a slinky black dress, choker and stylish up-do.

The photo appears to have been taken during the festive season since the couple are standing in front of a Christmas tree.

According to the image caption, “16 year old Meghan Markle [poses] with her first boyfriend Luis Segura at a high school Christmas dance in 1997”.

The post has received more than 63,000 ‘likes’ – and many social media users were in disbelief at how little the Duchess appears to have aged.

Last month, Meghan’s high school teacher said she was “always a leader among her school friends” and “stood up for the underdog”.
