Princess Eugenie welcomed her first child, a son named August, around the same time Meghan and her husband Prince Harry announced they were expecting their second child.
A source told US Weekly: “Eugenie is really the only member of the royal family that Meghan is still close to.”
The source said they “are sort of an unlikely pair, but remain in contact”, adding that the pair have bonded over their pregnancies.
The two being a close fit has not gone undocumented, with the royal pair reportedly being close thanks to Harry’s close relationship with his cousin.
