Prince Harry has been longing for Princess Diana's love ever since she passed away in a car accident in 1997, but he finally found peace when he married Meghan Markle in 2018; is it true that the Duke fell in love with Markle because she shares similarities with the late Princess?

According to Express UK, Meghan Markle's philanthropical aspects and humanitarian work are two of the reasons why the Duke of Sussex fell in love and decided to marry her.

The former actress shares these qualities with Princess Diana. A royal fan claims that these personalities "mirrors" Prince Harry's mother, making him more attracted to her.

Speaking to the "Royally Obsessed" podcast, the fan mentioned that Markle has been doing charitable works her entire life, long before she met the Duke.

"Besides her physical attributes, I believe Harry married her because she had activist qualities similar to his mother. So in being her well-established self, Meghan mirrors Diana." The fan said.
