Strange Things Everyone Just Ignores About Meghan Markle

Since her relationship with Prince Harry became public back in 2016, Meghan Markle has become one of the most scrutinized celebrities in the world. And the more fans learn about her, the more fascinated they are. Here are some bizarre facts you may not know about Meghan Markle. One of the most surprising facts about Meghan is that Meghan isn't actually her real first name. The duchess' birth name is actually Rachel Meghan. Funnily enough, Rachel was also the name of her character on the show Suits. Apparently, the Queen had to use Meghan's full name when she officially blessed her marriage to Prince Harry. As Harper's Bazaar pointed out, it's not totally clear why Meghan goes by her middle name. It may be that she prefers Meghan as a stage name.
