Meghan Markle's best friend: "How she'll change the royal family"

When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tie the knot in May, it’s going to be a star-studded family. Not only will most (if not all) the British royals be in attendance, but political figures, foreign royals and celebrities will line the aisle.

And among them is Markle’s best friend, Indian actress Priyanka Chopra – well, maybe. The 35-year-old is remaining tight-lipped about her potential attendance, but in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar Arabia, Chopra wasn’t shy in sharing her thoughts on her bestie joining the royal family.

“I don’t think anybody else would be able to do it the way she will,” Chopra said. 

“She’s just right for it. She’s an icon, truly, that girls can look up to, that women can look up to. She’s normal, she’s sweet, she’s nice, she thinks about the world, wants to change it and this was even before any of this happened.

“So I do think Meghan being a part of the royal family is a big step in the direction of so many things; of women, of feminism, of diversity, of race, of the monarchy versus everyone else. It’s a beautiful step in the right direction.”

As for whether or not she’ll make a cameo in the royal wedding? 

“If you see me there, you’ll know,” Chopra hinted.
