“Everything was just texts and FaceTime's and we'd just talk for hours and it just felt exciting which is so weird because it wasn't exciting in the way that people would assume that it would be,” she said.

Wearing a grey sweater, she added, "It was just relaxed and easy. We just got to know each other. Truly, like any other couple when you're figuring out.

"What do you like to eat, what do you like to cook? What kind of movies do you like?", Meghan Markle said.

He goes on to say: "So much of how Meghan is, and how she is, is so similar to my mum.

"She has the same compassion, she has the same empathy, she has the same confidence – she has this warmth about her. "
