ROYAL fans have spotted one of Meghan Markle's A-list pal's sat close to Kate Middleton in Wimbledon.
Priyanka Chopra enjoyed the Women's Singles Final donning a floral dress and sunglasses as she cozied up to her husband, Nick Jonas.
The pair enjoyed the game from the comfort of the royal box, just inches away from the Princess of Wales.
The Baywatch actress, 40, first buddied up with Meghan back in 2016 when they both attended the Elle Women in Television dinner in Los Angeles.
From there, they bonded in Canada as they were both filming close to each other.
Priyanka was also guest at Meghan and Prince Harry’s star-studded wedding in May 2018.

There were rumours the pair had fallen out when the actress missed Meghan's luxury New York baby shower, but Priyanka put these to bed when she visited baby Archie in Windsor.
But this isn't the first time the star has had an awkward run-in with Kate, as rumours of a royal rift between Meghan and Kate continue to swirl.
In 2021, Priyanka also attended the Woman's Final in Wimbledon and was spotted walking straight past Kate, seemingly trying to avoid her.
