Regardless of why Meghan ditched her first name, we can’t imagine ever calling her “Rachel!”
One of these jobs was working as a professional calligrapher.
That’s right she was a professional at fancy handwriting!
Not a bad skill for a duchess if, we do say so ourselves.
As Meghan toldEsquirein 2018, she picked up calligraphy when she was still in school.
Apparently, cursive writing came to her naturally.
So, instead of waiting tables in between acting jobs, she ended up working as a freelance calligrapher.
She even revealed that she did the handwriting on Robin Thicke and Paula Patton’s wedding invitations.
Wow, sounds like Meghan had the makings of a lucrative career!

Talk about a change of pace!

It’s like a commercial at this point."

Apparently, the connection stems from Meghan’s grandmother on her father’s side.
Nevertheless, she did share an ancestor with the royals.

As Dr. Greenberg went on to explain, Meghan’s nose has a “refined” appearance.
“Let’s face it,” he said.

We have to admit, now that we think about it, Meghan does have an exceptionally good nose.
Apparently, the performance took place in 1998 when Meghan was just 17.
The two girls wore simple all-black outfits with Santa hats for the performance.
AsThe Sunreported, the performance was a sign that Meghan was growing up into the woman she would become.

There’s plenty of speculation about why the duchess changed her wedding ring band.
