On Tuesday night, Meghan Markle [1] hit another royal milestone [2] when she took part in her first official solo engagement [3] since marrying Prince Harry [4]. But as the Duchess of Sussex made her way inside the Royal Academy of Arts in London for the opening of a new exhibition, she appeared to — shock, horror! — close the door of her car herself. Cue the royal drama!
Over the years, members of the royal family have been known to leave their car doors to be shut by their protection officers. Meghan, however, who stunned in a black Givenchy dress [5], automatically reached to close it, which immediately sent Twitter into a meltdown.
"A Princess who still takes time to shut her car door. Well done Meghan!" said one user. Read on to see more photos of the moment that sent the internet into a frenzy, and take a look at some of the funniest (and most ridiculous) tweets I came across. Because, you know, shutting a car door is such an extraordinary task.
