Ever since Meghan Markle has entered the royal family she has been creating history; right from being the first black woman to marry into the royal family, walking herself down the aisle, making a statement about a political moment to being the first Duchess of Sussex in the entire history of the kingdom, the Duchess of Sussex makes it look all easy. So, it is no surprise that she is making a history yet AGAIN.

In the long list of achievements that the Duchess has had, the latest one is of being the first person from the royal member to be nominated for a Emmy nomination. As reported by Cosmopolitan, the former actress has her name submitted for her supporting actress role in the hit TV series, Suits in which she portrayed the role of Rachel Zane. Her name has been submitted in Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series category.

After confirming her wedding to Prince Harry, Meghan announced that she would be retiring from the showbiz industry. The role of Rachel was the last for Meghan which means it is her last shot to ever have a nomination at the Emmy awards. Even though this all seems exciting, the chances of Meghan making the final nominations are quite slim as in the past the other cast members have not received a nomination. But as we all know by know, Meghan has a way fo getting around things so there is always a possibility we might see her name.

As of now, we are sure Meghan is quite busy with the royal duties she has in hand. The Kensington Palace recently announced that Meghan and Prince Harry will be heading for their first official royal tour. The two recently returned from their honeymoon but are already up and running with the royal duties in their hand. 

"Their Royal Highnesses have been invited to visit the Realms of Australia and New Zealand by the countries’ respective governments. The Duke and Duchess will visit the Commonwealth countries of Fiji and Tonga at the request of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office," the palace announced. 

At the same time, Meghan will also be seen with the Queen. According to People, the Duchess of Sussex will accompany the Queen on a visit to Chester to carry out her first official royal outing. The Queen will be taking Meghan along to unveil a new bridge in Widnes, Cheshire, and open the Storyhouse Theatre. After the unveiling, the two will sit down for lunch at Chester’s Town Hall. 

Talking to People, Ingrid Seward, author of the recent biography of the 'Queen and Prince Philip, My Husband & I', revealed that Queen has been making sure Meghan knows how to be a royal. “The Queen knows the potential pitfalls of not giving [new members] a guiding hand,” he said. “It’s all about the monarchy. She can’t expect Meghan to know everything without being shown.”
