Meghan Markle gets embraced by teen, says she's 'welcome here'

In Meghan Markle news, after two days after Queen Elizabeth II's demise went on a surprise tour of Windsor Castle with her husband Prince Harry, Prince William, and Kate Middleton.

Meghan gave a heartfelt hug to an adolescent girl as she toured the sea of memorials and greeted well-wishers waiting at the gates for nearly 40 minutes. The juvenile girl spoke to CNN about the significance of the hug.

"We were just waiting for her to come, and she just came near me and asked my name, and how my day was, how long I as waiting," the 14-year-old girl said of the moment. "I asked if she could have a hug, and she hugged me back. It was just quite an amazing moment. I'm still shaking now."

Questioned by reporter Scott McLean on why she reached out, the teen said she felt pushed "because I look up to her in some ways, and it just felt like it was the right thing to do."

McLean asked, "Why do you feel a bit of sympathy for her? Just because of the Queen's passing or because of her relationship with the royal family?"

"I guess both. It was quite nice to see William and Kate and Meghan and Harry together," she answered.

"I just wanted to show her that she's welcome here and wanted to hug her after everything that's happened."
