Gloria Steinem said she and Meghan Markle cold called US voters together during their first meeting.
"The first thing we did — and why she came to see me — we sat at the dining table, here where I am right now and cold called voters," Steinem said in a video interview with Access Hollywood.
"And said, 'Hello, I'm Meg' and 'Hello, I'm Gloria. Are you going to vote?'" she added.
Steinem also said that the royal is also challenging the "princess" stereotype by being political: "She came home to vote."
Markle and Steinem recorded a Q&A session for the feminist media platform Makers last month, where they spoke about the importance of voting and how Prince Harry is a "masculine feminist."
