A 2013 talk show interview with Meghan Markle, 44, has resurfaced, with viewers marvelling at her very different personality.
12 years ago the then-actress appeared on Craig Ferguson’s Late Late Show to promote her series Suits, which at the time she was two years into.
She was also newly single, and in the process of separating from her first husband, producer Trevor Engelson. Three years later she would meet Prince Harry and go on to marry into, and then exit, the Royal Family.
Nowadays she can be found flaunting her homemaker skills and serene, cookie-cutter family life on Netflix, but in 2013 Meghan showed off a very different side on screen.
The future Duchess of Sussex, in a backless black mini dress told host Craig: ‘I got all dolled up for you,’ before launching into an upbeat conversation about her studies at Northwestern to her previous jobs at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires.
During the segment, which has been reshared on Craig’s Instagram account, Meghan talked about her father, Thomas Markle, telling Craig he was ‘a DP’ – the acronym for ‘director of photography’.
Craig’s reaction caused her to stop in the middle of her sentence, before realizing she had used a technical term and adding after a few giggles: ‘I didn’t mean to make it sound so industry.’
