Queen Elizabeth II was very keen to ask Meghan Markle about American politics during one of their first meetings.
Britain’s former monarch asked the Duchess of Sussex about her views on Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
According to an excerpt from Us Weekly, Prince Harry in his memoir ‘Spare’ reveals that the Queen was very interested in conversing with Meghan.
Harry knew ‘everyone in the world’ was obsessed with the race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, so Meghan’s opinion was obviously ‘grandmother’ wanted to hear – we love a royal who loves her tea.’
“However, Meghan took a very smart approach and realized it was a ‘no-win game’ to share her thoughts on the election (it’s easy enough to assume she voted for Clinton). She strategically shifted the conversation to her life in Canada, where she was filming the TV show Suits.”Grandma looked thrilled,” he added.
Harry wrote: “’Commonwealth. Good.'”
