Meghan Makle's The autograph has just gained much more value.

No, not because she is the first American to be accepted in the British royal family or because she marries her most charismatic member. (Yes,Prince George andPrincess charlotte are adorable, but sorry, Harry has always been the favorite.) And no, it has nothing to do with its instant mode icon or star status, either.

It's because when she gets marriedPrince Harry And officially becomes a royal, it will no longer be allowed to sign autographs.

The members of the royal family are expressly prohibited to report their name on anything. According to the newspaper based in LondonThe ExpressStrict anti-fraud policy is in place to prevent members from the signing of the royal family to be forged. (One might think that seeing the name "Catherine, the Cambridge duchess" on an application for an AMEX black card could trigger an alarm, but I guess we can not be too careful.)

Last week, when Meghan accompanied Harry to Nottingham to make his first official public appearance with him and a kickoff of six months to "get to know you" in the country, she worked the crowd outside the Museum of National Justice of the City as a Pro. With a bodyguard after tightly behind, Meghan rocked the hand (without gloves) and chatting wishes and placed for the selfies. She did not have to refuse to report autographs because he appeared that no one requests it. This is perhaps because the British people are well aware of the long-standing royal rule - and is polite inflexible.

It's ironic that Meghan, who abandons his actor career to marry Harry (Fun does: she was onceA briefcase model on "Deal or Nus Deal"), probably spent at least a few afternoon as a stars-eyed teenager practicing his signature in anticipation of celebrity. But once she supposes the most important role of her life when the couple gets married in May, she will have to adhere to the same rule and simply smile and sign at the camera.

It should be noted that at least one Royal has constantly broken this rule without autograph.princess diana It was well known for sending autographed photographs of herself to various events as thanks to the designers who are dressed and other people she met. At the famous auction for Christie of his dresses, in 1997, she signed the catalog in her female distinctive, protruding looking, for a few lucky participants. Not surprisingly, his is one of the most sought after autographs of collectors.

Maybe that's why he was so striking when he appeared in a bright pink ink on the cover ofTina Brown's the best-selling book,Diana Chronicles, after the death of the princess. It was the only thing about the end of the late princess she had managed to keep a little private. And for more royal coverage, do not miss the10 Secrets The palace does not want meghankkle to know.
