Unfortunately for Meghan, Ashley wasnāt interested. āMeghan said she loved London, and would love an English boyfriend, so I went through my phone to see who I knew that might be a good fit,ā Lizzie recently told Grazia magazine.
āI tried to find her a boyfriend ā Ashley Cole wasnāt so keen ā but I did try to fix her up, which is funny looking back.āAnd while things might not have worked out between Ashley and Meghan, Lizzie says that she can see why someone like Prince Harry could have fallen in love with her.
āShe was a real girlās girl: full of energy,ā Cundy said. āShe didnāt stop talking, and we had a big giggle. There was just something special about her. We just got on, and immediately swapped numbers. I looked at her and thought āyou have something special.ā She makes you feel at home straight away and it felt like Iād known her all my life. I can see why Harry fell in love with her.ā
Meghan ended up marrying Prince Harry in a star-studded royal wedding back in May of 2018.
