Meghan Markle's subtle social media hints before relationship with Prince Harry went public

Before their relationship was discovered, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle dated for months under the radar as they fell in love without the pressure of the world watching on.

But once everyone found out about their romance, Meghan was catapulted to a completely new level of fame and had the eyes of the world watching her every move. Not long after their relationship went public, the Suits actress retired her hugely popular lifestyle blog, The Tig, and deleted her Instagram to begin her new life as a royal.

Following revelations made in Prince Harry's memoir, eagle-eyed royal fans can suss out subtle hints Meghan made on social media pointing towards their relationship. Most of her photos were beautiful snapshots from holidays and travelling, as well as from the odd night out with friends too.

Meghan also dropped some not so subtle hints towards her relationship with a mystery man when she was active on social media. One post featured a photo of two bananas with drawings on spooning, which she captioned "Sleep tight xx”.

However, one photo in particular showed a much clearer hint of her relationship with the Prince which could have leaked their romance months before it was public knowledge, reports the Mirror. During a break from filming suits, Meghan - who was 35 at the time- shared a snap from her travels which featured her American passport alongside the book she was reading at the time.

In the photo, Meghan's wrist was accompanied by jewellery and one very specific blue, white and black beaded bracelet. The bracelet may not look very exciting, but eagle-eyed fans have noticed it bares a striking resemblance to one Harry wears.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed the exact timeline of their relationship in both their Netflix documentary and Harry's memoir, which suggests Meghan might have got her bracelet during their trip to Botswana.

The couple's first two dates took place in Soho House in London, and due to their busy schedules the pair couldn't meet again until weeks later. They travelled to Botswana on their third date, spending five nights camping in the country’s stunning countryside.

Harry speaks about the special trip in his memoir Spare, revealing they spent their days going on safari, sitting around the campfire and drinking cocktails made from river water. But mainly they chatted, telling stories and really getting to know each other.
