Behind those sunglasses, Anna Wintour has a soft spot for the Duchess of Sussex.
The longtime Vogue editor-in-chief revealed just how she feels about the former “Suits” actress ― and her gorgeous Givenchy wedding dress ― in a new video series called “Go Ask Anna,” where strangers ask Wintour random questions of their choosing.
“The royal wedding had the whole world watching,” Wintour said. “And I think that her [gown] choice was brilliant. It was sophisticated, it was chic, it was grown-up. It was an English designer, albeit one that was working in a French house.”
Wintour thought that Meghan Markle’s choice of designer Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy also sent a message to the world, declaring “Yes, I’m from somewhere else, but I belong. I thought she looked fantastic.”
She also said she loved the duchess’ decision to walk down the aisle by herself (though Markle actually stepped out of the car and walked up the church stairs by herself, where she was escorted down the aisle by Prince Charles).
Wintour even took it upon herself to defend the Duchess of Sussex’s reported morning routine, which includes waking up early and ― gasp! ― sending out text messages.
“I read somewhere that there were members of the royal household that were confused and upset that she woke up so early, at 5:00 a.m.,” Wintour said in the video clip.
“She’s a normal Californian girl who gets up early and does yoga and meditates. She also sent a lot of text messages,” she said. “I mean, what did they expect? That she was going to send messages via pigeon? I think she’s amazing.”
