Meghan Markle says 'penny dropped' day after event with Queen as Harry details being 'blocked' from seeing his grandmother

Meghan Markle has shared the moment the 'penny dropped' for her on the attention she was getting over other members of the royal family. In the second volume of their Netflix documentary, Meghan and Harry recall attending the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance in London only to find the next day that Meghan had made the front page of the newspapers.

Harry said: "First time that the penny dropped for her, M [Meghan] and I spent the night in a room in Buckingham Palace after an event where every single member of the family, senior members of the family, had been including the queen."

The Duchess of Sussex described how: "The next morning they'd set up breakfast for Harry and I..." before the duke interjected and said, "And on the front page of the Telegraph …Meghan." Meghan said she reacted by saying, "Oh my God" while Harry added, "She was like, 'but it's not my fault.' And I said, 'I know and my mum felt the same way.'"
