In somewhat odd, but very regal handwriting news, Meghan Markle hand wrote affirmative, empowering messages on bananas (yes, on yellow bananas not yellow pads) to be included in charitable donations to sex workers living on the streets of Bristol, England.

According to the Vanity Fair article, Markle and Prince Harry made an unscheduled stop at One25, a charity that supports women trapped in prostitution. When she saw the food items included in the donation bags, Markle came up with the idea to write sweet notes to the women on the bananas. Some of the affirmations were: “YOU ARE STRONG,” “YOU ARE LOVED,” and “YOU ARE BRAVE.”

It's been previously reported that Markle is a huge handwriting fan. She even worked as a freelance calligrapher on the side when she started acting.

​Bananagrams may or may not take off but either way, knowing that we have a handwriting patron in the royal family is a wonderful thing!
