'I love that she saw her teacher! Teachers are special people to a lot of people. I have some teachers I'll never forget and love dearly. That's awesome,' Shara Dixon added.

According to The Sun, Perreau was a star during the 1940s and she mentored Meghan in the craft long before the newlywed was picked to star on the legal drama series, Suits.

Perreau first appeared in the film, Madam Curie, when she was only two years old.

She shot to fame in The Donna Reid Show and The Betty Hutton Show. The shows earned her a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

In an interview with Leslie Carroll for the book, American Princess: The Love Story of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, Perreau said that she always knew Meghan would be “something special."

The actress-turned-coach described Meghan as a “lovely girl and very hardworking.”
