The palpable chemistry between Prince Harry and Meghan is undeniable. Even a fleeting glimpse of a photograph reveals the depth of their affection. Their bond, as many have observed, is a testament to a genuine partnership, a “team bond.” This dynamic is evident in their interactions – the way they communicate speaks volumes. When one speaks, the other listens with their whole being, a silent acknowledgment of their mutual respect and love.

Capturing this electric connection on screen is no small feat. Tiffany Smith, who plays Meghan Markle, and Charlie Field, who takes on the role of Prince Harry, spoke about the unique challenges and rewards of portraying this iconic couple.

“I think wouldn’t you see photos of them it is it immediately you see the love between the two of them and the affection and that they do have like he said this like team bombed and I think that’s what comes across where it’s like one of them speaking the other one is fully paying attention to them and I always joke because I’m like Harry definitely when he looks at her and that was the whole thing that came out with a wedding where everyone’s like find someone that looks at you like Harry looks at Megan,” Tiffany shared.

The actors’ connection translated beautifully on screen, particularly in the scene where Harry and Meghan first lock eyes.

“I think one of my favorite scenes to shoot was probably like the first when Harry and Megan first see each other because I think we didn’t get to do a chemistry test or anything for this project and we had been hanging out and so when we shot that team it was it was really fun because I feel like I felt really comfortable with him and it came across there were moments in it where I was like okay this is gonna work and then getting to see the stuff afterwards just as an actor and just being joyful about it because I had such a great affection for him and it came across,” Charlie explained.

Transforming into these beloved figures involved more than just capturing their chemistry. Both actors underwent physical transformations to embody their roles authentically.

When asked about the physical preparations for the roles, laughter filled the air. Tiffany, with a playful tone, admitted, “How do we both transform physically into the characters I kept on eating again petrified of being – thank you he was in the gym a lot no but I was definitely eating more because I think there was a sense that we really need to put on some weight excited and a literally I’m I know what was yeah yeah what about you.”

Charlie, on the other hand, attributed his transformation to the wardrobe department. “Oh yeah I mean I got a little runner go a little bit yeah it was the Wardrobe that was the transformation for me cuz I I could you today I’m laughing I had blown your hair at the time so afterwards I cut it so we didn’t really even have to do that much different styling for my hair I have freckles on my face so the cheeks makeup stuff that’s great yeah the only real change for me was wardrobe because she dresses a lot more like I I’m a little funkier I think I can wear a little more brighter colors and crazy things so.”

Interestingly, Tiffany has been told she bears a resemblance to Meghan Markle. “I have been told a lot that I look like Megan it started from suits and then once Harry and I get started dating it started happening even more then once they got engaged then it was like literally walking down the street people would come up and just be like you know who you look like you you look like which is such a huge compliment cuz I think she’s such an incredible woman and she’s beautiful so every time I’d be like thank you for this we compliment I’ll take it and then it turned into a job which is awesome yeah.”

Similarly, Charlie has encountered people who have pointed out a vocal similarity to Prince Harry. “I’ve always been told I sound a bit like Eric but never like because I’m blonde and clean-shaven most of the time.”

To fully embody their roles, both actors delved into extensive research, immersing themselves in the world of Harry and Meghan.

“So we did a lot I can only speak for myself I don’t I don’t think we did research together for sending in stereo videos back and forth apart from Instagram it’s done marry me right every time there’s a bit content but ya know most the time it’s just watching documentaries and YouTube videos endless YouTube videos about the way they talk and how they are together and different you know there are some scenes in the movie that are completely taking the baton taking exactly the same and so we just comment right to copied that so for research for me I started watching a lot more episodes of suits I feel like it’s one of those things as an actor sometimes it’s great because your research is watching television which I love yeah so I watched suits and then I watched a lot of like he said online videos youtube instagram a lot of documentaries yeah whatever noise well yeah go to the deepest dark of time yeah and it was really helpful cuz I feel like the stuff that was important for us was kind of the first film was so much about them falling in love but this is their interaction how comfortable they are together already so it was important to see like the little moments where like jokes aside like literally I would send him Instagram video doesn’t be like look how hair he’s holding her hand we need to hold hands this way yeah I’ve got the heat I’ve got him,” shared Tiffany.

For Charlie, understanding the dynamic between Harry and Meghan was paramount.
“For me it’s like how much they are like a team is what I’d say just really like kind of I don’t know what I’d mind most when I kind of look at them is it like they definitely just when they go to events and things it’s like but supercooling together and this is so much love and support and admiration for each other and what they both do I think I think that’s for me what I definitely tomorrow me and you know it is something where it is really sweet and even with her where you know she looks at him with just love and admiration and I love that because I think it’s it really is something where you see a couple that support each other and can really help each other along the way and I think that’s what love is and a great partnership to me.”

Beyond their roles, both actors expressed admiration for the real-life couple they portray.

“For me I’ve said this before I still you know my family are quite military going back into the generation so I’ve always admired the way that his service kind of when he was in the military when he was a young guy and if you see any videos of him it’s just I don’t I think that sense of GT and stuff I always admire very much in him,” Charlie revealed.

Tiffany shared her respect for Meghan’s outspoken nature and commitment to philanthropy. “For me one of the biggest things I admire about Megan I think would probably be the fact that she’s so outspoken about philanthropy and women’s empowerment and that she is super bold about it which I love I think that it’s something that working on the project I came away from it kind of feeling like okay I’ve done a lot of philanthropy but how can I be doing even more and obviously it’s not quite to the level of hearing Megan what they can do but it’s something that everybody can do on whatever level in their own community and so that’s one of the biggest things I admire about them.”

The question of whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle themselves will watch the movie remains a topic of speculation.

“I we’ve been asked a lot of times will Mary and Meaghan watch the movie what do you think their response is gonna be we have differing opinions I feel like as an actress if it were me and there was a movie coming out about me I would for sure watch it and I’d probably turn it into like a viewing event with my closest girlfriends and which is what I’m doing on Memorial Day with my girlfriends and I hope that you know kind of the same thing that I hope for the whole audience that I got into acting because I love how much joy it can bring in so I really hope that if they watch this movie they would feel joyful and uplifted because I think that’s the heart of what this movie is it’s you know it’s about love and it’s about a wonderful relationship and being true to who you are so I would hope that would be their response whereas I can only talk from maybe how I would be if someone made a movie about me I think that probably back no I couldn’t I couldn’t watch it oh I don’t know gonna watch our movie yeah yeah cool Sam,” Tiffany mused.
