In an incident that has come to light recently, we have come to know that Princess Eugenie and Meghan got along like sisters after their first meeting. Prince Harry has shared that although the meeting is now remembered for all the wrong reasons, the bond that they developed then was remarkable. Apparently, Meghan got food poisoning after having lunch with the Princess.

Princess Eugenie is one of the cousins of Prince Harry. She was the first member of his family to meet Meghan Markle. When Meghan met the Princess, she was still Harry’s girlfriend. Both of them met for lunch in order to get to know each other better. The lunch went great and the Princess liked Meghan as per Harry.

Harry has claimed that his sister and Meghan got along like sisters and they bonded well during the lunch. However, things took a wrong turn after that. Their encounter was slightly marred by calamari. Meghan had eaten seafood for lunch earlier that day and felt violently ill. She was later diagnosed with food poisoning. Later, Harry revealed that although their first encounter was marred, they just seemed like sisters.

Now, many people would get skeptical of such encounters as they might not consider it a good sign to feel queasy after meeting someone new. However, Meghan took it very lightly. For Meghan Markle, it was just a matter of bad timing when she met the first member of Prince Harry's family. The details of the event were shared in Prince Harry’s autobiography titled Spare.

The details described the event whose conclusion was very ideal. It is said that Harry and Eugenie are close friends with Jack Brooksbank, Eugenie's husband. In Nottingham Cottage, Harry arranged for his cousin Princess Eugenie and his then-girlfriend, Meghan, to meet. Nonetheless, the meeting was a huge success.

In fact, the encounter went so well that it first allayed Harry's concerns about introducing Meghan to the rest of the family. He hoped that the meeting with the rest of his family would also go as smoothly as the meeting between the Princess and Meghan. Harry has described in the book how Meghan and Eugenie got along so well it was as if they were sisters.

Even though Meghan Markle and Prince Harry no longer live in the Palace, they share a close bond with Eugenie. The Princess has even made an appearance in a Netflix episode of Harry and Meghan's show. Harry has even explained in his book that it was much simpler for him to introduce Meghan to his brother after learning that William and Catherine were great Suits fans. The show titled Suits is one of the great works of Meghan before marrying Harry.

Harry describes the night Eugenie and Meghan spent together. He explained that it was a success, but then the events changed. Meghan ended up feeling nauseous. She was forced to leave the dinner gathering after getting severe stomach pain. She then began violently throwing up that evening as a result of possible food poisoning. The source of Meghan's illness is revealed later. It turned out that she ate squid at the restaurant during lunch and the calamari was the reason behind her ill health. 

Fortunately, a ruined lunch didn't ruin Meghan and Eugenie's friendship. The two are believed to still be close after the Princess’s appearance in the Netflix episode of Harry & Meghan’s show. In the never-before-seen video, Eugenie visits the US after Harry and Meghan abandoned their lives as working royals and spends time with her cousin and his kid, Archie. Eugenie and Princess Beatrice have also been suggested as the invaluable link to eventually reunite Harry and Meghan with the royal family.
