As reported by The Sun, Nina said she had initially left the Duchess of Sussex a note. It read: “It’s a pleasure serving you! Love you real bad – AA girlies.”

Meghan responded to the note, and wrote her own on a napkin.

The Meghan Markle was on my flight, and she’s so beautiful in person.

It reportedly read: “Dear AA girlies, thank you for the love, hospitality and handwritten note — you know me well.

“All love right back to you. As ever, Meghan.”

Of course, Meghan made a subtle nod to her lifestyle brand – As Ever – with the end of the message.
