Meghan Markle Getting ‘Rizzed’ by Schoolboy Goes Viral

The Duchess of Sussex visited Robert Clack Upper School in Dagenham, east London, in March 2020, days before her final royal job.

Meghan asked, “if there is one brave young man in this room who wants to come and say what he thinks the importance of International Women’s Day is?”

And 16-year-old Aker Okoye stepped up in front of his fellow pupils to take the microphone.

On his way to the podium, the cheeky teenager gave Meghan a hug and a kiss before telling the other pupils—and the watching media—that “she really is beautiful. innit.”

The moment caught attention in Britain at the time and won praise for both Okoye and Meghan, who was at the time in the middle of a media firestorm related to her decision to quit the palace for a new life in America.

However, it has now bizarrely won a new audience on TikTok among sports fans who appear to think Okoye reminds them of Manchester United soccer star Kobbie Mainoo.

The video was viewed 357,000 times and liked 46,000 times after it was posted with an on-screen caption joking: “Throwback to when Kobbie Mainoo rizzed up Meghan Markle.”
