Archie's ex nanny said first meeting with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was 'surprising'

dailyrecord.co.uk:

A nanny who was hired to look after Prince Archie by Harry and Meghan said she had a "surprising" first meeting with the couple before she started duties.

Paediatric nurse and consultant Lorren Khumalo was employed by the Sussexes to look after their first child just months after he was born and at the time, the couple were residing at Frogmore Cottage ahead of their announcement they were stepping down from working royal life to move to the US.

In an interview in her native Zimbabwe, Lorren opened up about the day she went along to Frogmore to meet Harry and Meghan for the first time and she was put at ease by a very informal greeting from Harry.Speaking on an episode of The Breakfast Club with Zenzele Ndebele last year, she said: "I thought to myself, 'I wonder how their nannies look, do they wear heels?'"Prince William has got a Norland Nanny, so they've got a brown uniform that for my skin colour and the way it looks in khaki brown, I knew it wouldn't even go, it would just not work."So I [thought] I'll wear something dark and nice kitten heels but I'll look presentable for a royal so I need to do my best.

But I didn't use any make-up, I said if they take me, they take me as I am."I wasn't born with a silver spoon, I'm not blue blood, I will go as I am and trust me with my God, I'll get this job."She then revealed that she actually got a speeding ticket on her way there, for driving "too fast".She added: "So I got there and there's lots of checks that they do but when I got there I expected to see a princely somebody, in those very expensive German, Swiss suits or something.
