Meghan Markle's 1 Hidden Talent That Could Come in Handy at a Royal Wedding

May 3 2017 - 10:45am

Meghan Markle [1] has many talents: actress, travel pro, and lifestyle expert (she wrote the now-defunct blog The Tig [2]), and calligrapher. Yes, calligrapher. In a Good Housekeeping interview [3], Prince Harry's main squeeze revealed, "I used to be a calligrapher for weddings and events — that was my side job while I was auditioning." This means that there are lucky brides out there who can say that Meghan literally wrote their invitations! But based on how much Meghan values a handwritten note, we suspect the experience was as exciting for her as for the bride. "I think handwritten notes are a lost art form," she told Good Housekeeping. "When I booked my first pilot, my dad wrote me a letter that I still have. The idea of someone taking the time to put pen to paper is really special." We love a girl who appreciates the good old-fashioned beauty of a handwritten note – not to mention how impressed we are by anyone who can do calligraphy.
