Duchess Meghan Markle just celebrated her 39th birthday and it seems that she confided in Bobbi Brown that she was dating a "fellow from the UK", before her romance with Prince Harry went public.

The former actress worked on a photoshoot with make-up guru Bobbi, for The Coveteur in 2016, during the early days of her romance with The Prince and she told Bobbi about her new man.

In a birthday tribute to Meghan on Instagram this week, Bobbi wrote: "Happy Birthday to #meghanmarkle who was such a joy to work with. Sweet, cool and so funny. At the time of the shoot she was telling me about a fellow she had just started to date from the UK. I didn't ask who. Saw them again at a very special @sohohouseamsterdam birthday day. Sweet as always."

During their Coveteur shoot in September 2016, the Duchess showed the makeup mogul how to apply makeup in the back of a moving Uber, and two months later, her romance with Harry was confirmed. How sweet!
