The Duchess of Sussex has been given a very unusual nickname by her new father-in-law, it is claimed.
Meghan, 36, was initially christened "Tungsten" by Prince Charles because she is tough and unbending, just like the very strong metal, according to palace sources.
It might not appear the most flattering of comparisons, but it is intended as a compliment by Charles, 69, and the affectionate name has stuck.
The source told the Mail on Sunday: "Prince Charles admires Meghan for her strength and the backbone she gives Harry, who needs a tungsten-type figure in his life as he can be a bit of a softy. It's become a term of endearment."
