She didn't get an invite to the Royal wedding, but it turns out Meghan Markle texts Ellen!

The talk show host revealed this week that she learnt of viral dance sensation Jeny Bosenge and her daughter when friend Meghan Markle text her. 

“Do you know how I found the two of you?” Degeneres asked the young dancer,  “Meghan Markle sent me this video, she texted me and said what do you think of this, how great is this girl.” she continued.

Videos of dance instructor Jeny Bosenge and her 9-year-old pupil Anae, went viral last month as they showed off their moves online. The clip has now been watched over a million times. The pair, from Belgium, appeared on Ellen last weekend and looked visibly shocked and delighted when Ellen told them how they had ended up being brought to her attention.

Degeneres has always been supportive of the couples conservation work and visited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and baby Archie in August at their London home. She said: “Here’s a sentence I thought I’d never say, but I spent the afternoon with Prince Harry and Meghan.

“I can’t tell you how sweet they are, but the most important thing is I got to hold Archie, little Archie. I fed Archie, I held Archie.”
