My 4 year old upon seeing Meghan Markle’s mother: “Mommy, the Queen is so beautiful!” Me: “Yes. Yes, she is.” She never once noticed any other Queen in the room. My work here is done.

Let’s take a moment to honor this beautiful, strong woman; Meghan Markle’s Mother, Doria Ragland, who sat alone, a million miles from home, in a situation so foreign to her own life, with grace, dignity, poise & deep love for the child she raised? THAT, is royalty.#RoyalWedding pic.twitter.com/iZhTRSN8uh

The only person in Meghan Markle's family with any goddamn sense is her black mother.

For me a lasting image of the #royalwedding was the dignity and poise of the Duchess of Sussex's mother Doria Ragland. Thrown into the limelight of the Royal family & sitting alone encapsulated everything the day represented. Beautiful lady. #DoriaRagland #RepresentationMatters pic.twitter.com/kI5N0pnf1p

Oh are we talking about Doria? Doria Ragland? Style icon Doria Ragland, 61, social worker-turned-best-dressed woman in the United Kingdom with grace and class to spare? Or are we talking about a different Doria pic.twitter.com/eiyc8B6txJ

To all single mothers who have struggled to raise their children,Doria Ragland proves that it is all worth it in the end
Why she didn't have a close relative or friend to support her is a mystery.She was star of the show.#respect #DoriaRagland #royalwedding pic.twitter.com/0lO8H6aT2y
