Sarah told GMA: “Lady Margaret is an extremely wonderful, strong, very resilient redhead who fights for her heart… against extraordinary confines of what is seen as noble and duty.

Meghan even said during their joint Oprah Winfrey interview that it was Sarah who taught her how to curtsey.

The former Suits actress told Oprah that Sarah rushed out to instruct her before she met The Queen for the first time.

Meghan claimed: “Right in front of the house we practiced and ran in. Fergie ran out and said, ‘Do you know how to curtsy?’

“Apparently I did a very deep curtsy, I don’t remember it, and then we sat there and we chatted.”
