Meghan Markle Becomes The First Royal Nominated For A Teen Choice Award & I Am Not Surprised

Meghan Markle’s royal style has led her to make history as she’s just been name a nominee for the Teen Choice Awards for “Choice Style Icon.”

This is the first time a royal has ever been considered for an award for the show since it began in 1999. Should the Duchess of Sussex win, I’m curious to see whether she’d attend or more likely, record a video acceptance speech for the honor.

Fellow stylish category competitors include Blake Lively, Chadwick Boseman, Harry Styles, Migos and Zendaya. Unlike many of the other award shows, the Teen Choice Awards are open to voting by the public.

This may be Meghan’s first award nomination since becoming a royal, but it isn’t the only award she could be up for. According to Entertainment Tonight, Meghan was submitted for an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series category by USA Network for her work as Rachel Zane on Suits.

Now, Meghan Markle stans, if you want to see her win the surfboard (yes, a surfboard), you can vote up to 10 times a day on TeenChoice.com or an unlimited number of times on Twitter.
