Many assumed Harry and Meghan met through their shared commitment to charity work, so you may be surprised to learn their first meeting was actually spurred on by something far more mundane.
In July 2016, Meghan was on a girls' trip through Europe with her friends during a filming break ahead of "Suits" season seven. One of Meghan's friends posted a photo of the actor with a 2016-era Snapchat dog filter, and she just so happened to be Harry's friend. Harry, seeing the picture, was instantly smitten. "I was like, 'Who is that?!'" Harry says of seeing Meghan for the first time.
The friend emailed Meghan, writing, "Between you and I, thought you might want to know this being newly single and all. I put our Snapchat on Instagram and Prince Haz follows me (he's a friend). He called me last night dying to meet you. Hehehe. I just might have to set you up."
After looking through Harry's feed, which consisted of beautiful photography and environmental shots from the time he spent in Africa, Meghan knew she wanted to meet him.
