He said they attended high school in Los Angeles together.

“Meghan was amazing…a woman among girls. Everyone was in love with her. She was sweet, and very kind.’
Continuing, to chat about Meghan, who attended the all-girls Catholic school Immaculate Heart High School, he added: “We admired her. She was a good friend.”
Nema admitted that he was smitten with Meghan, who was homecoming queen, and said he wasn’t the only teenage boy who had a crush on her.

He added: “She knew exactly what she was doing. She toyed with our hearts masterfully. We all swooned for her.
“We were at a party one time and she sat on my lap. She got nose to nose with me.
“For a 16-year-old guy, that is an emotional moment. She said to me in Farsi, ‘You are so beautiful.’
“I asked her, ‘How do you know Farsi?’. She said, ‘I learned it for you.’ Then she walked away.”
Nema said he was surprised to hear about the backlash surrounding Meghan and Prince Harry’s decision to step down as senior royals because he had known her to be “this really sweet, kind girl.”
