Meghan Markle‘s girl squad is pretty powerful — we totally wish we could be a part of it. While we know she’s besties with Priyanka, Chopraand even Amal Clooney, there are some people who have truly been there for her from the start. From college besties to A-listers to style icons, the 37-year-old Duchess of Sussex definitely knows how to choose friends wisely. Check out her inner circle below!
Meghan and Lindsay Roth became BFFs after meeting in a Toni Morrison literature class at Northwestern University. The two have vacationed together, attended sports games, concerts, wild nights out and basically have the most normal BFF relationship ever. Meghan took on the role of Lindsay’s Maid of Honor when she got married a few years ago. BFF goals!

Jessica Mulroney
If Meghan had a Maid of Honor, it would have been celebrity stylist Jessica Mulroney. The pair first met after Meghan moved to Toronto in 2011 and immediately bonded over their love for yoga, and much more. Jessica is Meghan’s go-to, most likely because she can relate to her lifesstyle. Jessica is currently married to Ben Mulroney, who is to the oldest son of the Former Canadian Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney. Rumor has it that Meg and Prince Harry even hid out at the couple’s house when they first starting dating. Jessica’s three children all served as bridal attendants in the royal wedding. Yup, they are pretty close!

Priyanka Chopra
Priyanka Chopra is basically Meghan’s ride or die. The two became good friends at Elle’s 6th annual Woman in TV celebration. They constantly posted pics together on Instagram and show love to each other whenever they get the chance. However, don’t call Meghan “Prince Harry’s girlfriend,” to Nick Jonas’s wife’s face … she’ll snap. In May 2016, the actress was quick to correct Wendy Williams when she called Meghan “Prince Harry’s girlfriend,” instead of “Meghan.” Also, Meghan Markle, actress, Suits, her achievements … just saying,” she replied to the host. We don’t know about you … but we are waiting for the girls to put together a double date. Prince Harry and Nick Jonas in one room together? Yes, please!

Abigail Spencer
Abigail Spencer and Meghan co-starred in Suits together, but actually became friends years before the show came to TV, at an audition! Guess what? The two even share the same July 4th, birthday, so clearly their friendship is meant to be. The 37-year-old actress attended the royal wedding, which proves how real their friendship must be. The two were most recently spotted grabbing lunch together in NYC at the Surrey Hotel, prior to Meg’s royal baby shower.

Misha Nonoo
International fashion designer Misha Nonooand Meg met through mutual friends years ago in Miami and immediately bonded. Misha has styled the royal numerous times and clearly, Meghan trusts her opinion. The duchess wore a shirt that Misha designed for her first public appearance with Prince Harry at the Invictus Games. If that’s not enough, the iconic stylist is the one who reportedly set Meg up with Prince Harry! Her ex-husband Alexander Gilks went to Eton with William and Harry so — it makes sense.

Serena Williams
We want in on this friendship! Meghan met Serena Williams at a charity football Game in 2014 and well, the rest is history. Meghan took to her lifestyle blog to gush about her heartwarming friendship with everyone’s favorite tennis pro. “We hit it off immediately, taking pictures, laughing and chatting—not about tennis or acting, but about good old-fashioned girly stuff. So began our friendship … She quickly became a confidante I would text when I was traveling, the friend I would rally around for her tennis matches, and the down-to-earth chick I was able to grab lunch with a couple of weeks ago in Toronto.”

Amal Clooney
Amal Clooneyand Megan’s friendship first made headlines after the activist and her hubby, George Clooney were spotted at the royal wedding. How did they become friends? No one really knows but … Princess Eugenie’s husband, Jack Brooksbank is a brand ambassador for Casamigo’s tequila so, maybe they helped introduce the power couples to each other. Harry and Meg even enjoyed a four-day vacation with the Clooneys at their villa on Lake Como. Yes, we wish we were there too.

Gayle King
Gayle King has recently made her move into Meg’s inner circle, and we’re pretty happy about it. The TV host was technically not invited to the royal wedding, but she did fly to England to cover the big day. Clearly, the two have become closer since because she scored the invite to Meg’s baby shower, which she publicly spoke about on CBS This Morning. “I hope she won’t mind me sharing this because I’ve never seen anything like this at a baby shower … They had flower arranging. They brought in somebody to explain how to arrange flowers. We all each made an individual vase. I thought that was a very sweet thing. I mean it just speaks to who she is. She’s very kind. She’s very generous, and a really, really sweet person.”

Patrick J. Adams
Okay, so Patrick J. Adams is not a girl, but he’s still Meg’s OG! The duo played opposites in Suits together for around 7 years so, we get why they are BFFs. The 37-year-old gave his costar a heartwarming shoutout when news first broke of her engagement to Prince Harry — it was adorable. “Playing Meghan’s television partner for the better part of a decade uniquely qualifies me to say this: Your Royal Highness, you are a lucky man and I know your long life together will be joyful, productive and hilarious. Meghan, so happy for you, friend. Much love.”
