But Meghan let slip an insight into what the couple call each behind closed doors.

The royals are known for having peculiar nicknames for each other, including Gan Gan, Sausage, Gary and Tungsten.

And it seems this royal couple are no different from any other, with pet names for one another.

Worried she was blocking his view, the former actress says: “Can you see my love?”
