Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle own the very same dress

The internet is freaking out about this.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle

People can’t cope with this at all.

As Kate Middleton is pregnant with her third child, eagle-eyed fans are all agog watching for a hint of a baby bump and last night’s public appearance was no different.

The Duchess of Cambridge attended a gala event at Kensington Palace and as usual, her outfit was the centre of attention with many commenting that this was the second time she wore the DVF number.

However, it was also pointed out that this gown, albeit in a shorter version, has also been worn by Meghan Markle, none other than Prince Harry’s girlfriend (and soon to be sister-in-law if the rumours are to believed).

Kate was pictured in the dress back in November 2014 when pregnant with Princess Charlotte and Megan wore a shorter version of the item in a navy colour at an event in 2012 so you could say the actress wore it first.

According to reports, this is the Zarita lace gown by Diane Von Furstenberg and it retails at $900 (around €1000) but it’s sold out at the moment.

The gala was held in support of the Anna Freud Centre, a charity that supports children’s mental health and which Kate is a patron of.

As you’ll see in the video below, the expectant mum met children and their parents at the event and as fans of the Duchess know, she is a huge advocate for mental health.
