    This is hilarious.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made news last year as they stepped down from their royal family roles and relocated to Los Angeles, California.

    From the bikini photographs taken by paparazzi that enraged Prince Harry to Meghan's relationship with Kate Middleton and rumours of the feud following their tell-all Oprah Winfrey interview, Meghan Markle has made non-stop headlines since the move.

    This week, it was some resurfaced comments from Meghan Markle's team that made news, as they revealed that she likes to use Britishisms in day to day life - and of course that her team loves Prince Harry's accent.

    'Meghan was the all-American girl before she met Harry, but since living in the UK she’s adopted certain phrases,' a source revealed according to a report from The Sun. 'Her staff think it’s amusing to listen to an American celebrity using Britishisms. She’s often heard saying, "Oh dahling," to people at home. They do have a giggle about it and sometimes they do impressions of her but only in a light-hearted way. It’s funny to them.'

    She continued: 'The staff there love to hear Harry’s accent, too. They adore him. He’s very well-mannered and staff were shocked by how down-to-earth he is as a royal. He just wants to live a more normal life now in California and enjoy family time. No doubt he’ll start to pick up Americanisms soon and will be asking staff to take out the trash.'

    Well, this is hilarious.
