Everyone thinks this actress will be Meghan Markle’s maid of honour

Meghan Markle's maid of honour

Speculation is growing.

Yesterday, Kensington Palace announced that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would marry on the 19 May 2018.

Of course, next year’s royal wedding has received countless media attention thus far and the latest question posed is who Meghan will choose as her bridesmaids.

All clues point towards actress Priyanka Chopra and although currently, reports suggest she will be a bridesmaid, we have a sneaking suspicion that she could edge the maid of honour title.

The duo met at a party in Toronto where Megan resided while she filmed Suits.

From India originally, Priyanka has starred in a number of Bollywood films and most recently took on the role of Victoria Leeds in Baywatch opposite Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron.

Priyanka, a former Miss World, is an ambassador for UNICEF and with Meghan’s stint as an ambassador for the United Nations, it’s clear they have a lot in common.

One of the most glaring clues is the fact that after the couple’s engagement was announced, Priyanka shared a heartfelt congratulatory message on social media.

Other names in the running include Millie Mackintosh, whom Meghan met during her time in London and Serena Williams, whom she has been friends with since 2014.
