“Pinch me, I’m talking to a princess”: what Meghan Markle wrote on The Tig blog

Main topics

Meghan blogged about her life, posting wish lists for gifts, talking about her childhood and her favorite sports. Tig Talks featured interviews with Priyanka Chopra, Serena Williams and other celebrities.

After her relationship with Prince Harry ceased to be a secret, Megan shut down the project. This happened in April 2017. A farewell letter appeared on the site and all content was removed. But something can still be found on the Internet!

Megan Markle said she loved Tignanello wine from the first sip, but it was hard to remember its name: “I realized that wine is not just a drink, I realized what people call the structure and characteristics of wine. Also, the word Tig to me means a moment of supreme pleasure.

Megan also said that she liked other Maltese wines after which they really became more popular than before.

Talking about her favorite Tig Cup cocktail, Meghan mentioned that she loves picnics and barbecues. And here is the description of the dream evening according to her: “Sunny day, cocktail in hand, close friends laughing, good music sounds, a light breeze blows. I’m talking about a good time!”

In another post, Meghan showed off a photo of her beagle wearing a British flag sweater.

In one of the site’s interviews, Markle took on Libyan princess Alia al-Senussi: “I had the feeling of ‘pinch me, I’m writing a letter to the princess!’ Megan would know how many princesses she will meet in the near future!

On Mother’s Day, Megan said many kind words about her mother, who taught her so much and was always loving and caring.

On August 4, 2014, when she turned 33, Megan said, “I’m happy. It’s a very bold statement, but I worked on it a lot. Be happy. Learn to love yourself. Do not seek happiness, but feel it. My 20s were tough: constantly fighting with myself, being judged by numbers on the scale, style, wanting to be as cool/smart/something like everyone else.

In my school, there were different groups: black and white, Filipino and Hispanic girls. I was somewhere in between. And every day at lunchtime, I picked something to do, just so I wouldn’t have lunch alone.

“I was 24 when the casting director looked at me and said, ‘You should know you’re on your own. Less makeup, more Megan,” those words have become something of a catchphrase for The Tig.

“Those five pounds lost won’t make you happier, the extra makeup won’t make you more beautiful, and Jerry Maguire’s words – ‘you complete me’ – are actually far from the truth. You are complete with or without a partner .You are perfect just the way you are,” Megan wrote.

Meghan Markle also opened up about how she got into the Suits series. During the audition, she was so worried that she forgot the words and decided she had lost the chance to call from the movie studio: “I came home and ate everything that was: pizza, quesadillas, everything, because I couldn’t forget my failure. I wanted it so badly, but I didn’t get it.”

Fortunately, Meghan came to her senses, changed into a black dress, which she still wears, and went to the audition again. This time it all went well, she was cast in the role… only to be released later when the relationship with Prince Harry became public knowledge.

In a word, the project was good, it’s a shame that Megan closed it. Maybe one day she will continue to be frank with the public!
