Talking about her experience working on the show, Mindy said, “She can do anything … She’s just such a thoughtful, creative person with stuff at home and she has a garden. She legitimately has gardens so it was really fun for someone like me.”

Meghan Markle has been in the public eye since she got married to British royal Prince Harry. They left their royal life behind in the UK and moved to the US after the wedding. They then made some revelations via the Oprah Winfrey Show in which they claimed that Meghan was subjected to racial comments and that all the online trolling and hate got to them eventually.
