Lizzie Cundy says 'Meghan Markle asked me to find her a famous British man'

Meghan Markle reportedly asked Lizzie Cundy to help her find a 'famous British man', three years before she met Prince Harry. 

Lizzie claims she became friends with The Duchess of Sussex, 36, after the pair hit it off at a charity dinner together back in 2013. 

The former WAG, 50, told The Sun: 'We were having a girly chat and then she said, "Do you know any famous guys? I’m single and I really love English men", so I said, "We’ll go out and find you someone".

Lizzie said she showed the former Suits star, who had divorced first husband Trevor Engelson, 42, three months prior to her London trip, a picture of Ashley Cole  who she ruled out because of his reputation.

The radio presenter said the pair then met up again at the Global Gift Gala the following day: 'Meghan’s so relaxed, she liked a drink, great fun, I remember her asking about my boys, she was very interested and asking lots of questions,' Lizzie said. 

The television personality added the pair kept in touch and was stunned when news broke of her relationship with Prince Harry.
