Wedding bells are ringing and love is in the air for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry as the lovebirds prepare to walk down the aisle in a few months time. As a potential queen, Meghan is already learning all the required royal tradition like the peculiar wave of a queen, curtsy and more.
Also, she’s making huge impacts in notable projects around the world with her new status. The husband-to-be, Prince Harry, is always on hand to give his fiancee the necessary lessons on the royal lifestyle, and Meghan is very grateful for that. Not only that, he’s been doting over her like a father dotes over his daughter.
Apart from learning the curtsy and wave, the duchess slant is now on her as well. Meghan displayed her new duchess slant during the royal event in February as she walked around the venue in the company of her fiance, Harry, her brother-in-law, Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton.
The duchess slant is a manner of walking in which the ankles and knees are glued together, while the walker will slant the legs to one side so as to form a complementary shape. Kate Middleton is so much accustomed to this posture and Meghan is not ready to be left out too.
Some other new lifestyle practices for Meghan include;
Meghan curtsied for Queen Elizabeth II during the Christmas Day church service.
She can now sound British
Now, that is the evidence of love and bond because Harry’s British way of speaking is showing vividly on Meghan’s speaking style too. Meghan is dropping her American accent quickly.
She spent her Christmas holidays at the Royal Palace
Meghan became the first fiancee to a prince who would be allowed to celebrate Christmas in the Buckingham Palace in 2017, a shift from the Royal rules which stipulates that only legal wives or husbands to the royal children are permitted to witness the feast organized by Queen Elizabeth II. However, Harry allegedly requested for a waver on his heartthrob’s behalf, and it was granted.
She already debuted her first curtsy in public
Meghan did her first-ever flawless curtsy which she offered when she honored Queen Elizabeth II at the church service organized in honor of the Christmas Day celebration.
She perfected the customary royal wave
She followed Harry to Reprezent Radio located in Brixton, London, not long after the Christmas celebration. During the visit, Meghan waved in a royal style and it was perfect.
No more selfies for the queen-to-be
She politely declined a request from a couple to take a selfie with her. This happened in December at Nottingham. She was reported to have told them that royals are not permitted to take selfies.
Although this strict rule has been softened for some years now, unlike before, it’s very important for the public to stop requesting for celebrity gestures like selfies or autographs from royals so as to avoid breaking the standard and propriety set by the royal law.
Meghan is influencing the world positively through her new status
She recently gave a motivational speech at a program organized by the royal foundation, where she expressed her conviction that women already have voices so there is no need to look for one. All they need now is to be strengthened and taught how to use their voices.
As customs demand, when both lovers finally get married in the next 2 months, it’s mandatory for Meghan to pick a set of charitable causes which she will head as a royal member. So for the Hollywood sensation, she already made herself available to begin work immediately in the area of women’s support, empowerment, and emancipation, although she may not be allowed to make a choice yet until Spring time before she can select what she prefers,
The beautiful actress gave her inspirational thoughts on the empowerment of women at the royal foundation event last February. She declared her commitment to women programs going around lately.
The protocol was breached by her
Apart from spending her December time at the royal palace while still courting Harry(an unacceptable royal act), Meghan also broke another protocol during the royal event, when she was caught embracing a pressman.
The royal code stipulates that physical contact must not go farther than shaking of the hands, however, this rule has been broken several times by the royal family when they find themselves immersed in emotional moments that they can’t deny.
