According to In Touch Weekly, people noticed just how affectionate Meghan Markle and Nacho Figueras were together. However, the athlete’s wife, Delfina, was nearby. Prince Harry was also there as they embraced.
“It raised some eyebrows at the polo match to see how cozy she got with Nacho,” an inside told the outlet. “People couldn’t help but notice.”
Meanwhile, body language expert Judi James tells The Daily Mail that Meghan was affectionate with Nacho’s entire family. She also revealed a close friendship between them.
“We haven’t seen Meghan looking so utterly tactile and unreservedly warm before but it does show a hidden ‘private’ side to her that is so on-brand with her new subject-matter,” James stated.
