'Meghan took on the role of Lola Banana in her high school’s performance of Damn Yankees. She “shimmied across the stage” in a “sequinned leotard” as she performed the song What Lola Wants. And the moment was “very similar” to when Kate donned a see-through dress for a charity catwalk show at St Andrew’s University in 2002 - where she and Prince William were both students - according to royal author Andrew Morton. Mr Morton explained how Meghan’s performance was a “eye-opener” for teachers and students who saw another side to her, as William did with Kate when she took to the catwalk in the daring dress. Writing in Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, the royal biographer said: “Meghan Markle’s high school acting career is best remembered for her performance as the sexy South American vamp Lola Banana in the 1995 musical comedy Damn Yankees. “When Meghan, dressed in long satin gloves and a sequinned leotard, shimmied across the stage in the sassy burlesque number ‘What Lola Wants’, she brought the house down. “At another time, in another country, something very similar happened when the normally demure student Kate Middleton sashayed down the catwalk in a sheer shift dress over a bikini at a college fashion show. “Prince William, watching the parade from the front row, whispered to his companion, ‘She’s hot.’ The rest is royal history. “On this occasion, it was an eye-opener for those teachers and classmates who were seeing a very different side to Meghan. “Normally seen as fun but thoughtful, mature and controlled, Meghan’s amorous song-and-dance routine was a revelation.” Kate and William are believed to have starting dating a year after she caught his eye in the fashion show, with the pair marrying in 2011. And following her high school performance, Meghan went on to become a successful actress, starring as Rachel Zane in the TV series Suits when she met Prince Harry in July 2016. But Meghan gave up her acting career ahead of her royal wedding last May. Mr Morton’s comparison comes amid claims of a rift between the two duchesses. Meghan and Kate have faced months of rumours that they do not get on. There were reports of a clash over staff and a row over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress. However, Harry and William’s wives put on a friendly display when they stepped out for the royal family’s traditional church service on Christmas Day.'
