She said to Meghan, “Oh that's another thing we have in common, the English people thing, I'm English."

Meghan replied, "Yes, I heard you just got your citizenship, was it last year, a couple of years ago?” to which Pamela then responded, "I did a couple of years ago."

Meghan then revealed that she had too studied for the test before she and Harry stepped down as senior royals, but did not confirm if she had completed it. She did however say, "That citizenship exam is so hard. I was studying for it and I remember going 'oh my goodness'.”

Pamela then joked "I think they made it harder for you."

Meghan responded, "You think?" To which Pamela then quipped, "Yeah, they were like, we're gonna really throw up walls on this one."
