How Did Meghan Markle and Priyanka Chopra Become Friends? They Just Clicked

Meghan Markle is set to tie the knot with Prince Harry on May 19, and one person who will likely attend the nuptials is Meghan's pal Priyanka Chopra. The ladies first met at Elle's Women in Television dinner back in 2016, and they instantly hit it off. "We bonded as actors," Priyanka told People. "We just became friends, like two girls would."

Like any good friend, Priyanka also has Meghan's back. Not only was she quick to speak out about the "sexist" portrayal of Meghan in her 2017 Vanity Fair feature, but she recently penned a lovely profile of Meghan for Time's annual 100 Most Influential People list.

"This ever-smiling, strong free spirit found her prince, fell in love and in turn made a cynical world believe in fairy tales again," Priyanka wrote. "Meghan is an important influencer in a world that needs strong public figures to respect and look up to. People the world can be inspired by. Meghan, standing shoulder to shoulder with Harry, will be a princess for the people."

Take a look at a few of their sweetest moments together.
