5 Things Meghan Markle Has To Stop Doing After Marrying Prince Harry

Meghan Markle will be changing some of her ways when she officially joins the royal family.

The "Suits" actress is set to marry Prince Harry in May 2018. Just months prior to their royal wedding, some are already seeing a new Markle. According to The Sun, here are some of the things that Markle will likely have to change.

No Selfies

Matthew Barzun told Tatler in 2014 that the queen finds this "disconcerting" and "strange." Markle has been prohibited from taking selfies and even told a couple in Nottingham that "we're not allowed to do selfies."

No freedom to go out in public alone

Since Markle is joining the most popular British family, she has to be surrounded by security whenever she steps out. In fact, when she moved to London in November, days before announcing her engagement to Prince Harry she was spotted shopping in the city and was guarded by the royal protection officers.

Less Social Media

When Markle's high-profile romance with Prince Harry was publicized she changed her approach to social media. The "Horrible Bosses" star shut down her lifestyle blog The Tig and has not updated her Instagram account.

Markle has been very open on the said website. In fact, in one entry she wrote: "Stop biting my nails. Stop swearing. These make my New Year's resolution list nearly (AKA actually every) single year." But Markle is expected to be more private and careful with her posts when she marries Prince Harry.

According to The Sun, Markle will be joining Prince William, Kate Middleton and Prince Harry on Kensington Royal social media accounts. The said account is what the royal trio uses to give updates on their public engagements and charities.

Right to Vote

Markle will be applying for a British citizenship ahead of the royal wedding. But this does not mean that she can vote for elections.

The parliament website stated that "Although not prohibited by law, it is considered unconstitutional for the Monarch to vote in an election." The members of the royal family also abide by the same law.

In fact, back in June, a Buckingham Palace spokesperson stated that the royal family members do not vote "by convention."

No autograph signing

The royal protocol prohibits the royals from giving autographs. The queen, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince Harry do not sign autograph books as an anti-fraud policy. Markle is expected to do the same.

In fact, Prince Charles was once asked for his signature and he said: "Sorry, they don't allow me to do that." The members of the royal family are only allowed to sign visitors’ books and official documents when on official engagements.
