The newlywed Duchess of Sussex has been granted her own coat of arms, Kensington Palace has announced. The coat of arms was designed to personally epitomise Meghan, as it’s symbolic of both her previous home in California and new residence at Kensington Palace.

The design was approved by the Queen and Thomas Woodcock, garter king of arms and senior herald in England.
