Markle will sparkle

‘G

ET ready. For the first five months of the year, (and that’s just for starters), at any given moment of the day, someone, somewhere, will be saying the words ‘Meghan Markle’. Since the American actress became engaged to Prince Harry, she has already been hailed the saviour of both the Royal Family and UK, while at the same time being vilified for posing a threat to the monarchy and bringing about the end of the British way of life (as if that would be a bad thing).

She better get used to it. As the latest member of ‘The Firm’ and unarguably the best looking, she will be the focus of unending attention. (Nobody say the words ‘Princess Diana’).

In the coming months, as the countdown to the Royal Wedding continues, we the public will learn everything there is to know about MM, and, er, weddings in general. Expect endless speculation on the sort of dress MM will wear, who will design it, how her hair will look, the shade of her lipstick and even what canapes will be served on the Big Day.

No doubt lots of air will be given to asking if Trump will be invited. (We guess not).

Speaking of invites, yet more dodgy relations will be unearthed. She shouldn’t worry. The groom has his fair share of them. And because Meghan is in her mid-30s, once the knot is tied, she won’t even have arrived at the Royal Reception before the baby speculation starts.
