Meghan Markle was an actress before she married Prince Harry in 2018. Although the Duchess of Sussex had to give up her celebrity status to be the wife of the younger son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, she still maintains her capability of being comfortable with speaking to people.
On top of being an actress, Meghan Markle was also an activist and a public speaker. In 2012, the Duchess of Sussex joined USA Network's “Characters Unite: ‘I Won't Stand For’” campaign and spoke about her struggles being a biracial woman.
With chaos erupting in the US over the death of George Floyd at the hands of police brutality, Meghan Markle touched on this subject during a speech she gave to graduates at the Immaculate Heart High School in Los Angeles. Now, a new report revealed that the Duchess of Sussex didn’t have notes when she delivered her message.
"As you can probably tell, it's pretty raw and she spoke without notes,” a friend shared. ”But she's been having lots of conversations about the issue before filming.”
If this is indeed true, it’s not shocking at all as a previous report even suggested that Meghan Markle outperformed Kate Middleton during their first royal speech. The Duchess of Sussex may no longer be a working royal as she and Prince Harry officially stepped down from their roles at the end of March, but her presence during her time in the UK, reportedly, left its mark.
Body language expert Judi James compared Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle’s first royal speech and favored the latter. The Duchess of Sussex’s acting background has definitely helped her as Judi James shared that Meghan didn’t even have any notes when she delivered her speech. As mentioned above, she was an actress, so learning lines was something that comes naturally to her than Kate Middleton.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have been compared to each other numerous times. While the Duchesses are two completely different individuals with different styles of handling and completing their royal duties, supporters, critics, royal experts, and more are still comparing the two women.
In fact, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have been compared to each other over anything and one of the craziest comparisons was their legs. Previously, fans took to social media to talk about Princess Diana and the Duchesses’ legs. This time, Kate won against Meghan, according to royal fans.
