As for being able to write with both hands, what book are you reading? It's not surprising for someone that's trained through practice. I had a teacher for calligraphy growing up (not the kind Meghan does, but Chinese brush writing) that only ever wrote with right hand until a motorcycle accident, and he broke his right arm and started practicing with his other hand.

I don't remember which book. There are a ton of books out now about Meghan, many of them with some inaccurate info. It may have been the Morton book, or another recent book on the royal wedding with pictures and text.
Being ambidextrous does not necessarily have to do with practice, and the equal ability with both hands involves more than the task of writing. Practicing to become ambidextrous is not recommended, according to reference sources on this topic. If Meghan is in fact ambidextrous, I would think it's a natural gift. In such cases, scientists believe neither hemisphere of the brain is dominant.
I am aware that color blindness is rare in females. If in fact, Meghan's father has it, she could be a carrier.

For seven years Meghan Markle worked on the legal drama Suits, portraying lawyer Rachel Zane.
Fans of the show were heartbroken to lose Meghan from the cast when she decided to give up her television career in favour of dedicating herself to her new royal duties.
And after spending so long starring in the programme, it should come as no surprise that people are curious as to whether the 37-year-old is keeping up with the new season of the show.
Thankfully two brothers are said to have taken the plunge and asked her outright at an event this week.
She is believed to have simply replied with a "no" before swiftly turning the conversation back to the awards.
Despite not binge watching the show, the new royal is still close to her former cast mates, with many attending her wedding at St George's Chapel back in May.

Well one door closed on her previous life and a new one opened. I'm sure that Meghan still keeps in touch with cast and crew though.

However, logistically speaking, unless someone sends her the episodes, the new season isn’t available in UK yet.

I don’t see any problem even if she chooses not to watch the show anymore even if there was access. There was also a brief video where Meghan kindly spoke with Suits fans who came to see her while on the recent tour.
Even her former co-star, Patrick said that he doesn’t watch the show. Lots of time when people leave a job, they don’t go back to the old one.

I’m not saying there is a problem. Just pointing out that even logistically it’s an issue now that she lives in a different country. Plus, Meghan didn’t watch the show when she was on it either. There was a panel discussion (for season 3, I believe) where she talked about that.

1yr she was a breath of fresh air (the most overused phrase in regards to royal couples) then she's bossy, telling him to not play with his friends, and that she wants a separate residence from his brother and sister in law! Now shes so bossy that workers are jumping from the window to get away from that evil Americans demands!!!!

My goodness I've gotten up for work at 4 and 5 am for 30 years...surely that is not a new concept for them that people get up early ..I am much more of a morning/day person for getting things done.

Of all things, I never thought getting up at 5AM would be a problem...
Although I've read that successful people often wake up early. So rather than whining to the tabloids, waking up earlier would do much for that courtier's career.

A Fairytale...
If you think about it: There is this girl from the country, which becomes a princess... and she thinks, she can - with her big heart and her common sense - rock the court and deal with the life there without putting too much effort into it. All problems seem to be easy to solve.
And then, in the very moment her charming and protecting prince is abroad in a country far far away, all hell breaks loose. The crazy press, shadowy figures, rumours... A catastrophy!
But then the prince comes back and advises her to take lessons about the protocol more seriously and to read her Machiavelli. She follows this advise and lives happily ever after.

I don't think Meghan thinks she can, or even want to, rock the court. She simply wants to do some good in the world. A characteristic that was there well before the prince.

The whole tiara gate and Meghan getting up at 5am -if that’s so scandalous to the staff and so called courtiers. It shows a how out of touch they are. A lot of people get up at 5am for work and arguing over Tiaras (major eye roll).

I find the tiara story a bit of fluff to be honest. I don't care how confident Meghan is I do not think she would have even known about the number of tiaras available or one with an emerald in it, never mind demand it from the queen. If she did see it it is possible Eugenie had already asked for it and therefore the queen said no to Meghan, I doubt for one minute she would have thrown a strop at the queen, demanding a particular one. The queen knows the history of all these tiaras, and who has previously worn them, she would decide what ones would be on offer to Meghan to wear.

Good to see other media give a different perspective about some of the unfair treatment of Meghan by some in UK media that have basically been copy/pasting negative articles.
CNN- It is barely six months since the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was feted by the British press as a modern, progressive fairy tale.
But now, certain corners of that same British press are turning against them -- or, more specifically, the bride.
