The Duchess of Sussex’s make-up artist has revealed he learned about the royal wedding after the former actress texted him a simple emoji.
Celebrity make-up artist Daniel Martin was tasked with creating Meghan’s natural and radiant make-up look for the wedding last weekend.
And close pal Meghan used an emoji to enlist his services!
Daniel, who has known for Meghan for ten years, told Elle magazine that Meghan used a rather unconventional way to ask if he’d do her make-up for the wedding.
The pair usually communicate via text rather than phone call, because they live in different time zones and he’s always travelling for work.

He explained: “She sent me a text asking what I was doing the weekend of May 19th. I was like, ‘I may be in Cannes for the film festival but what’s up…’ and she sent me the bride and groom emoji right back and I literally dropped my phone!
“Then she sent me the ‘shhhh’ emoji back so I couldn’t let anyone know…”
And Daniel stuck to his word, with nobody knowing he was the person behind Meghan’s wedding day look until Kensington Palace released the information on the day.
He added that before the wedding Meghan was “extremely chill” as they had breakfast and got ready together.
