According to a The Sun report, since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle exchanged their vows and the Archbishop of Canterbury joining them together in holy matrimony, the apparent ‘simple’ life of Meghan Markle has changed forever.

Now that she’s officially joined the Royal family, the American actress will be getting to grips with the strict rules that come with being a member of British royalty.

Markle's social media, including her Twitter and Instagram, have been inactive for months. As you might expect, she will no longer be able to use her own personal accounts.

Instead, like Prince Harry, William, and Kate Middleton, she will use the family's Kensington Royal account to share updates on her life and royal happenings. The account is where the family shared her engagement pictures and announcement.

Here is a list of the things in which the new Duchess of Sussex is banned from doing:

Go out in public totally alone: Now that she’s joined one of the most famous families in the world, she will have to get used to being surrounded by top security at all times. Heading out for a jog in the park by herself will have to be a memory of the past. Like every member of the royal family, Meghan will have security with her everywhere she goes.

No more selfies: In today's age taking selfies is very common but is it definitely a no-no when it comes to British royalty. In any event or any occasion, the couple is forbidden to take selfies with or without each other. Reports state that the Queen highly dislikes selfies and so this habit has seemed to trickle down to the rest of the family members.

No autographs: As an actress. Meghan Markle has definitely had a fair share of autographs to sign, but now that she will become a Royalty once she is married to Prince Harry, she won't be allowed to sign them anymore. The Royals are said to default an apology when asked for an autograph by the general public.

No Colored Nail Polish: Take a look at Markle's hands in the recent months, and you'll notice that she's already started following this rule. Royal Family members are prohibited from wearing dark and colored nail polish, meaning that they stick with skin-tone shades.

No voting: According to British Policies, the Queen has to remain neutral to any political matters and this includes voting. However the no-voting policy is strictly for the Queen, the other members of the Royal Family also choose to follow this rule.

No going to bed before the Queen: It is quite known now that Queen Elizabeth has some very peculiar rules. This particular rule is said to be the most hated. The bride-to-be Meghan Markle has to stay awake and follow this rule while she stays at the Queen's residence and probably has to attend all the social functions and dinners along with her.
