Meghan Markle's royal title cheekily mocked by Ellen DeGeneres in new interview

Ellen DeGeneres took a cheeky swipe at Meghan Markle’s royal title as she appeared on Ellen’s talk show.

The talk show host struggled multiple times to pronounce Meghan’s royal title, Meghan The Duchess of Sussex, after they sat down to chat on the NBC show.

Ellen then admitted that Meghan’s official title is “hard to pronounce”, and even mocked it by trying to get Meghan herself to try and pronounce it.

The stand-up comedian proceeded to dig at Meghan’s royal title later in the interview as she struggled again, but this time she asked the studio audience to try their best to say the name.

The TV host repeated herself multiple times as she attempted to say it faster and faster, just like a tongue twister.

Also in the interview, Meghan had to perform a series of hilarious dares.

Meghan was sent out to do some shopping, and she had to wear an earpiece as Ellen fed her what to say to a group of vendors during the on-air prank.

At the start of the sketch, Ellen said: “I sent Meghan out to do some shopping. She wore an earpiece and had to say and do everything I told her to do.”

At one point, Ellen tasked the former Suits actress with touching her elbow and nose before asking her to squat – in an apparent test to see if Meghan could hear her.

Ellen instructed Meghan: “Do a squat if you can hear me” and the former royal did just that, which left the studio audience in fits of laughter.

The presenter then roped Meghan in to keep repeating the phrase “this is a lovely day” until it lost all meaning.

The royal mum also had to pretend she was a spiritual healing expert in the prank segment.

For this, she had to demonstrate her ‘skills’ by saying “Watch me!” before enthusiastically touching all of the items on one vendor’s display table.

At the end of the clip, Meghan said: “I have healing powers”.

Meghan also spilled the gossip on her secret Halloween date with her hubby Prince Harry before they were married.

Meghan said that they had to keep things under wraps at the time as nobody was allowed to know they were dating.

She explained: “He came to see me in Toronto and our friends and his cousin Eugenie and now her husband Jack, they came as well.”

“And the four of us snuck out in Halloween costumes to have one fun night on the town before it was out in the world that we were a couple.”
