Apparently, a keen eye for fashion is not the only thing the women of the royal family have in common. 

Earlier today, Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan Markle, 43, officially kicked off their Colombia tour. After the royal couple were welcomed by Colombia’s Vice President, Francia Márquez, at her official residence, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex paid a visit to the National Centre for the Arts in Bogota.

According to Harper’s Bazaar, Markle stepped out in a Johanna Ortiz mauve-pink number that features an embroidered maroon and gold design with a low-cut neckline. Meanwhile, Prince Harry kept his outfit a bit more casual with a beige-colored blazer with a baby blue button-down shirt (and a necklace) peeking underneath. He paired the ensemble with a matching pair of beige pants and chestnut brown loafers.

While I couldn’t get enough of Markle’s pink dress moment, something about the duchess stood out to me. As she proceeded to tuck her hair behind her ear, I instantly thought of her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, who was recently photographed emulating the same gesture. 

Back in July, the Princess of Wales, 42, attended the final day of Wimbledon with her 9-year-old daughter, Princess Charlotte. As they arrived at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, Princess Catherine was captured on camera tucking a piece of hair behind her ear; a casual gesture that’s become something of a signature hair move for the royal.

Turns out Princess Catherine and Meghan Markle are more alike than I thought.
