The real reason why Meghan Markle avoids wearing bold and bright colours

The reason why Meghan Markle avoids bold and bright colours may surprise you.

The Duchess of Sussex recently stepped out sporting a bright canary yellow dress during her appearance with Prince Harry at the “Your Commonwealth” Youth Challenge Reception in London’s Marlborough House.

The former Suits actress – who normally wears traditional neutral coloured ensembles – reportedly steers clear of bright colours when accompanying Queen Elizabeth II to give Her Majesty the spotlight.
