At the traditional Windsor Christmas lunch on this day in 2017, she wondered if Princess Michael of Kent wore the 'racist' Blackamoor brooch as a 'message', book claims Meghan Markle's disapproval surrounding the institution of the Royal Family appears to have never been far from the surface.
In her and Harry's Netflix 'docuseries', she notoriously appeared to mock her own efforts at following royal protocol when she met the late Queen for the first time in 2016 by giggling as she performed a deeply exaggerated curtsy.
But one moment at the beginning of her royal career stands out as the possible source of her tainted opinion on the family - the Blackamoor brooch row.
The ensuing scandal caused Princess Michael, now 79, to issue a public apology saying she was 'very sorry and distressed that it has caused offence'.
Was this the moment Meghan Markle started to dislike the Royal Family?
