During a one-on-one interview with Tom Bradby, Meghan proudly admitted to not being happy with the way she is being scrutinized while at the same time sharing her nickname of the prince.

Royal Family Members Call Each Other Nicknames
Other royal families also give nicknames to one another. Kate Middleton has been heard calling her children "poppet" while at play. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge lovingly call each other "babe" and "darling". And even Prince Philip calls Queen Elizabeth, his wife of 70 years, "Cabbage".
