Meghan Markle has been "quite influential" on Princess Eugenie with the pair "like old friends" according to a royal expert. Meghan revealed during an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 that the pair knew each other well before she married Prince Harry, but now a royal commentator says the Duchess of Sussex has had a big impact on Eugenie.
During the interview she said: "Eugenie and I had known each other before I had known Harry, so that was comfortable.
"We're friends with them as a couple."
Now royal style expert, Bella Hignett, says the pair's friendship is evident from their similar wardrobes.
She told GB News: "Both Meghan and Eugenie appreciate each other’s style.
"They are quite old friends, but I have always felt that Eugenie is quite influenced by Meghan’s wardrobe.
"In the past, Eugenie has copied a few items."
Ms Hignett said the main difference between the styles of the two are that while Meghan tries to look "effortless" Eugenie's dress is more "tailored".
