Anna Wintour Reveals What She Really Thinks of Meghan Markle

Meghan Markle might be one of the most-talked-about celebrities in the fashion space right now, what with her instantly iconic wedding last year and now a baby on the way. It's no surprise, then, that people would be curious what the ultimate fashion arbiter, Anna Wintour, thinks of the budding style star.
In the debut of Vogue's new video series called Go Ask Anna, Wintour answers questions from strangers on camera. When asked about the Duchess of Sussex, Wintour had a diplomatic answer: "I read somewhere that there were members of the royal household who were confused and upset that she woke up so early at 5 a.m. She's a normal California girl who gets up early and does yoga and meditates. And also [that she] sent a lot of text messages. What did they expect? She was going to send messages via pigeon? So I think she's amazing." So there you have it: Markle has Wintour's stamp of approval, so let's start crossing our fingers for a Vogue cover—perhaps with the royal baby in tow?
