How Meghan helped Harry on anniversary of Princess Diana's tragic death
Sources say Meghan Markle has been a great comfort to Prince Harry as yesterday marks 21 years since his mother Princess Diana tragically died in a car accident.
"I think Meghan has changed him for the better. I think she's helped get him more in touch with his emotional side and he is without a doubt a happier man with Meghan in his life," royal expert Katie Nicholl, author of Harry: Life, Loss, and Love, told ET. "[He's] so much more ready to embrace the future and his royal role with someone to share the load with. He seems really to have met his match in Meghan."
“Who can forget that poignant moment during the wedding when Harry gave Diana’s iconic aquamarine ring to Meghan as a wedding gift,” a source tells ET. “And their wedding photos were taken on the same couch Diana cradled Harry during his christening.”
Royal biographer Andrew Morton says Meghan and Diana have a lot in common.
"I think what Diana and Meghan have most in common is that they're both glamorous," he said. "Feminine, but also feminists. They're independent...certainly for Diana, but also, humanitarian. Two women who want to give back."
