MEGHAN Markle’s make-up artist Daniel Martin has said that the royal family is a “one way, one perspective establishment”. 

Daniel, who did the Duchess of Sussex’s make-up for her wedding day, praised his close pal for being “contemporary.”

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Daniel said: “I feel that what she represents is now. She is contemporary.

“She resonated on so many levels, because here is someone we all know. We all have a friend that looks like her, who is marrying into this establishment that was very one way, one perspective."

The renowned make-up artist said that his friend and client Meghan, 38, has changed the beauty industry for the better. 

He added: “I feel like globally she resonates on so many levels not only because of how she looks but who she is.”

Daniel added that he feels a certain “responsibility” to associate himself with her. 

He explained: “I'm very fortunate that we're authentic friends so I feel like I have to do and be as good because we're all in this together.

“She gave me this incredible gift and now it's my responsibility to share that.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as senior royals earlier this year, after marrying in May 2018. 

Speaking of the move, Prince Harry said at a Sentebale dinner: “It was so many months of talks after so many years of challenges. 

“And I know I haven't always gotten it right, but as far as this goes, there really was no other option.

“You've come to know me well enough over all these years to trust that the woman I chose as my wife upholds the same values as I do. 

“And she does, she's the same woman I fell in love with."


Daniel is believed to have met Meghan when she was an actress working on Suits in Toronto, and he went on to visit her at Kensington Palace after her move, and attended her New York baby shower. 

Speaking of doing her wedding day make-up, he said: “My goal that day was just to make sure my friend felt good on her wedding day. 

“It wasn't about the spectacle of who she was marrying, the wedding. I just wanted her to feel as beautiful as she did like any bride on her wedding day.”
