Royal fans who keep up with Meghan Markle will know the Duchess is a keen follower of a healthy lifestyle.
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, formerly wrote about delicious food for her wellbeing and lifestyle blog, The Tig, and has opened up about her love of fitness, in particular following her mother, Doria Ragland's, love of Pilates.

However, Meghan's husband Prince Harry, 39, detailed his wife's pre-birth meal, as well as his own, in his tell-all memoir Spare - and it is more relatable than you may expect!

Meghan has also been known to eat out at Mexican restaurants in California with her close pals. Last August, the Duchess was spotted leaving Gracias Madre on Melrose Avenue having enjoyed a meat-free Mexican feast alongside Ashley Momtaheni, who worked in global communications for Meghan and Harry's foundation, Archewell.
