Meghan Markle's mum Doria has a sweet nickname for the Duchess

It’s well known that Meghan Markle has a great relationship with her mum, Doria Ragland, who was the only member of the former actress’ family to attend her wedding in May.

The now pregnant Duchess of Sussex regularly wrote about her childhood on her blog, The Tig and even revealed the cute nickname her mum gave her.

According to The Express, in a post dated August 6, 2016, she marked her birthday with a Q&A about herself, in a section usually reserved for interviewing other celebrities.

“My team and I thought it may be fun to turn the tables on me and have yours truly answer the very Tig Talk I crafted when I first started this site,” she wrote.

Meghan revealed in the post that she had several nicknames, including Meg, MM and M+M and that her mother Doria has called her ‘Flower’ since she was little.

The sweet blog post was penned shortly before her relationship with Prince Harry was revealed.

The couple made their public debut at the Invictus Games in Toronto in September 2017 and announced their engagement in November.

They then tied the knot on May 19, 2018, and are now awaiting the arrival of their first child.
