Did Meghan Markle bend royal tradition again? Possibly. Find out what she said about the #METOO and #TIMESUP movements, plus deets on their growing royal wedding guest list inside…

Oops! Did she do it again?

Since Meghan Markle began the royal “induction” process, it’s clear she will be bending the rules a little bit. And it’s about time because sometimes royal protocol is just boring AF.

The former “Suits” actress, above styling in a navy blue Jason Wu trench dress paired with Aquazzura “Casablanca” multi-strap suede pumps, joined her soon-to-be husband Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, for a panel discussion at the first annual Royal Foundation Forum held at the Aviva in London yesterday. This was the first official press appearance of all four of them together.

The #METOO and #TIMESUP movements became the topic of discussion...and Meghan didn’t filter her response.  At all.

“I hear a lot of people speaking about girls’ empowerment and women’s empowerment—you will hear people saying they are helping women find their voices,” she said. “I fundamentally disagree with that because women don’t need to find their voices, they need to be empowered to use it and people need to be urged to listen."

“Right now with so many campaigns like Me Too and Time’s Up there’s no better time to continue to shine a light on women feeling empowered and people supporting them,” she continued.

Yessss Meghan!

Apparently, speaking about anything political publicly is a violation of royal protocol. And this wouldn’t be the first time she went “against the grain.”

The former actress (Look how she looks at her Prince bae!) spent Christmas with the royal family, which Kate didn’t do until she became the Duchess of Cambridge. Meghan also gave her first royal speech at the Endeavour Fund Awards before marrying into the royal family. Her soon-to-be sister-in-law didn’t give her first royal speech until a year after marrying into the royal family.

They will deal.

Speaking of the royal wedding...

Mel B let the cat out the bag, revealing all five of the Spice Girls have received invitations to attend Meghan and Prince Harry's royal wedding on May 19th. She didn't exactly confirm the next bit, but it seems the girls will also reunite to perform as well. Sweet!
