Throwback Thursday: Meghan Markle takes a 'Britishness' quiz in this video from 2016 that's viral again
American actor Meghan Markle and Britain's Prince Harry officially announced their engagement on Tuesday. And while a million hearts broke on Twitter, many were thrilled at the thought of a Royal wedding. 36-year-old Ms Markle, best known for her role as Rachel Zane in the hit television show Suits, is all set to begin the process of becoming a British citizen prior to the Royal wedding - a process that involves her applying for a spousal visa and could take several years.
But, as a video that resurfaced after news of the engagement broke shows, Ms Markle may need to brush up on her Britishness quotient.
In July 2016 - when she first started dating Prince Harry - the actor agreed to participate in a fun "Britishness" quiz for British show Dave while promoting Suits.
As Ms Markle prepares for life as a British Royal and studies up on British history and culture in preparation for her citizenship test, the hilarious video has suddenly gone viral again.
The video has the California native identify the national animals for England, Scotland and Wales (trust us when we say the answers will surprise you). She also translates popular British slang into "Americanisms" - some more successfully than others.
