During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in November, the Suits alum revealed Harry visited her in Toronto with Eugenie and Jack before she and the red-headed prince went public with their relationship. "They came as well and the four of us snuck out in Halloween costumes to just have one fun night on the town before it was out in the world that we were a couple," she explained at the time.

An insider previously told OK! that while Meghan and Eugenie have kept in contact, the actress has been keeping the 31-year-old close to keep tabs on the royal family. Eugenie is "basically the only royal Meghan’s still in contact with," said a source, who added that the 40-year-old likes Harry's cousin, but "she’s still utilizing her as a go-between for her own ends."

The source claimed Meghan was "using [Eugenie and Jack] as de facto message bearers to pass along her warm wishes to the Windsors," adding: "she’s also making excuses for her and Harry’s public bashing of the family, along with veiled pleas for sympathy and understanding."

The insider noted the royals are "well aware of what’s going on" and will only forgive the Sussexes if they try to make amends in person.
