In just a few short years, Meghan Markle has gone from a Suits actress and lifestyle blogger to a member of the British royal family and one of the most photographed women in the world. While that, of course, must have been a wild ride for Markle herself, it also had a strange impact on someone who happens to look a lot like her: actress Tiffany Smith.

For starters, it led to a big break in her career, as she’s playing the Duchess of Sussex in Lifetime’s new movie Harry & Meghan: Becoming Royal. (She took over the role from another Markle doppelgänger, Parisa Fitz-Henley.)

But Smith told Glamour that even before she landed the part, she was often mistaken for Markle. “The first time it happened was when she was on Suits and started dating Harry,” she says. “People would come up to me and say, ‘Do you know who you look like?'”

Once she landed the part, Smith says she studied Markle so much that she started to take on some of the royal’s mannerisms, like her now famous hair tuck. “It’s not a real tuck, but she kind of brushes it back,” Smith explains.

Obviously, the actress playing Markle in a movie will look like her—but a closer look into Smith’s Instagram feed only further proves how much these two look alike.

Major kudos to the Lifetime casting department on finding Meghan Markle 3.0—and if Markle ever wants to cut off her famous hair, at least she’ll be able to see how cute it looks.
