Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s visit to Jordan provided the first images of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex abroad in over 18 months. The country is closely linked to the Royal Family due to its historical ties with the United Kingdom, and because the Princess of Wales lived there as a child.
The couple travelled to the Middle East in support of the World Health Organization (WHO), which organised the trip to provide health and humanitarian aid, including mental health support, to vulnerable people affected by conflict or displacement in the region.
On their second day, Harry and Meghan visited the National Centre for Addiction Rehabilitation in Amman, where they wrote handwritten messages that revealed hidden tells about their personalities and their marriage.
On an orange Post-it note, Meghan showcased her beautiful penmanship, writing the following message: “Congratulations on your commitment to yourself. Wishing you a speedy recovery and continued happiness.”
In her documentary, the Duchess of Sussex revealed that she had always been incredibly proud of her handwriting and that it helped her pay for her acting studies, as she worked writing wedding invitations by hand.

Meghan is detail-oriented, flirtatious, and creative
Meghan’s handwriting stands out for its upward-sloping lines, “which she probably chose for aesthetic reasons,” noted Macarena Arnás, a graphologist, handwriting expert, and writer.
She continued: “It’s a very aesthetically pleasing style, where she’s very concerned with form, ensuring everything is visually neat and orderly.”
This indicates that “Meghan is a woman who cares about her appearance. She’s vain, flirtatious, takes care of her image, and is very creative,” this specialist points out.
She needs recognition because her writing extends into the lower zone; this is what we call in graphology ‘reverse stroke writing’: the upper and lower zones are marked.
These details are visible in what graphologists call the ‘crests,’ “which are the upward extensions of the writing, and these extensions appear at the ends of all the letters. Furthermore, the letter C is very wide.”
Based on her handwriting, Meghan is a woman who possesses “pride.” The expert explained: “She needs recognition because her writing extends into the lower zone; this is what we call in graphology ‘reverse stroke writing’: the upper and lower zones are marked.”
Macarena also pointed out that the Duchess “can be a bit stubborn; when she sets her mind to something, it’s difficult to get her to change her mind. There’s character, there’s firmness, but there’s also generosity, which I see in the curved shapes that extend into the inner form, a graphic gesture that shows dedication to others and a love of life”.
The author of The Magic of Letters and The Signatures of Napoleon, Stalin, Hitler, Elvis… and Other Stories of Graphology added: “I don’t think she’s resentful because of her handwriting style, but rather that she’s very detail-oriented.”

A pragmatic, reserved, and sensitive Harry
Harry’s text reads: “It’s okay not to be okay. Trust each other. Congratulations on your recovery. Never be ashamed of your bravery and resilience.”
His handwriting is completely different from his wife’s. “It has mixed forms, with curves and angles, which means he has a balance between his emotional and mental sides. The upper zone doesn’t predominate, giving him a more realistic, pragmatic character. He may be a decisive and practical person who usually seeks a middle ground, but unlike Meghan, he’s less impulsive; he tries to keep a low profile on many occasions,” Macarena points out.
