In addition to the obvious benefits of being a member of the royal family, there are responsibilities, as well. When you're a member of The Firm, as they're often referred to, you're representing a centuries-old institution — and, perhaps more terrifyingly, the queen. That said, at their cores, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are normal people from common backgrounds, so we can't always expect them to appear stuffy and conservative and uptight — in fact, we wouldn't want it that way.Â
Just as how, sometimes, the Duchess of Cambridge has been known to show a little leg, Meghan Markle does the same. And she does it well, may we add. Since she married Prince Harry, the Duchess of Sussex has been putting her own Hollywood-style stamp on her wardrobe — and sometimes that translates to thigh-high slits or dresses with hemlines Queen Elizabeth wouldn't necessarily appreciate. What can we say? Meghan was born and bred in Southern California — a place where shoes and shirts are often optional.Â
No matter what, Meghan always looks classy and timeless, but unlike some other members of the royal family, sometimes she likes to show some leg. And we've gotta say, if we had legs like the duchess, we'd absolutely be doing the same.Â
Here are 20 times Meghan Markle's legs stole the show. Hot mama!

Queen-Approved
While this certainly is a hemline the queen would approve of, Meghan's legs are still taking center stage. It's as if they were made for stilettos.
Oh, Hello!
Clearly, Meghan — and her amazing legs — have perfected the duchess slant. Kate Middleton would approve.
Tights or No Tights?
She may be wearing stockings here, but that's not stopping Meghan's legs from stealing the show. And that's no easy feat when you're with the queen.

We see your legs, Meghan. They can run (obviously), but they can't hide. And to be honest, we wouldn't want them to!
Flats, Heels ...
Doesn't matter Meghan's footwear — her legs always look amazing. And somehow, she manages to pull off a trench coat on a beach. Not easy!
