Constantly traveling, writing and attending fashion shoots, the busy actress was often dedicated to posting about her favorite products, recipes and fitness tips. Meghan’s most memorable blogs often focused on holidays and gift ideas plus beauty buys for special occasions. The royal revealed some of her top picks on her blog The Tig.
