Kate and Meghan’s differing sense of style is in part dictated by royal fashion rules.

Since quitting the Fold last March Meghan fans have spotted the Duchess return to her old look.
In recent video calls, Meghan has sported bolder eye makeup and longer hair which may not have been deemed too casual for her former royal role.
