Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle will never wear this colour (for a very simple reason)

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are two of the world's most sartorially clued-up women.

From designer wedding dresses to chic high street buys, they've got royally good style (see what we did there?).

However, while Meghan isn't afraid of a daring hemline and Kate loves a zesty yellow dress, there's one colour the duo steer clear of.

Harpers Bazaar Australia pointed out that Kate and Meghan have never been spotted out and about in orange.

If you're an avid royal watcher, you'll probably have noticed, too.

While you may be quick to assume that it's down to royal rules, The Express believes it's for a much more simple reason.

Perhaps Kate and Meghan will catch on? Here's our edit of some celeb inspo to get you started.
