When Meghan Markle Revealed She Was Stopped From Doing THIS With Fans During Royal Engagement With Prince Harry

As someone who has been closely following the Royal Family for years, I find it fascinating to observe how their lives are so different from ours. The rules and traditions they follow seem almost surreal at times.


As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but acknowledge the significant influence and global fascination surrounding the British Royal Family. The media, particularly tabloids, seem to have a keen eye on their every move, from their stylish fashion picks to their daily meals. This constant scrutiny often results in headlines that capture the attention of people worldwide.

Alongside the late, cherished Queen, Prince Harry and his fiancée (now wife), Meghan Markle, who made their engagement public in 2020 and later tied the knot, often found themselves under intense media scrutiny.

Back in 2020, when the couple announced their engagement, AOI published an article recalling past events. It emerged that Meghan Markle was restricted from doing certain things, a fact she disclosed through old statements that have since resurfaced on X (previously Twitter) as of 2024.

For instance, during an occasion, when a pair requested a selfie with her, Meghan Markle mentioned she couldn’t take selfies due to certain rules and politely refused instead. According to royal expert Victoria Murphy, this incident underscores that “Meghan is swiftly adapting to the royal lifestyle.”

She kept smiling and acknowledged spectators as throngs of fans in the English city of Nottingham gathered for a peek at her.

Why does it seem like taking photos with fans is something the Royal Family tries to avoid? An article from Cosmopolitan published in June 2022 explains that while it’s not always forbidden, selfies with fans are generally disapproved of by the late Queen Elizabeth.

One royal fan who attended the Queen’s 2017 Buckingham Palace garden party revealed to Insider that taking selfies with the royals was seen as a sign of disrespect. 

Therefore, it’s common for females within the family to usually refuse taking selfies when asked to do so. As reported by Merkle in 2017, she told fans that they are restricted from taking selfies, as noted by royal journalist Victoria Murphy.

In 2016, the Duchess and Duke of Sussex first met, after which they consistently remained in the public eye. They tied the knot on May 19, 2018, during a lavish wedding at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.

The wedding of the couple drew worldwide attention, with it being watched by millions. Regrettably, following their marriage, Meghan Markle endured persistent criticism.

Back in January 2020, Meghan and Harry revealed their intention to part ways with their high-ranking positions within the British Royal Family. They expressed a wish to manage their own finances and divide their time between North America and the United Kingdom.
