Recalling their first connection during the show, Meghan said: "That's the thing. People say 'did you Google him?' No. That's your homework... you're like 'let me see what they're about in their feed', not what someone else says about them, but what they are putting out about themselves.
"That, to me, was the best barometer. So I went through and it was just like beautiful photography and all these environmental shots and this time he was spending in Africa." Harry said they then got each other's numbers, adding: "We were just constantly in touch."
The episode also shares the first messages between Harry and Meghan ahead of their first date. The Duke said: "So come on - what u doing tomorrow night? Hope you're Having fun over there!"
