'1923' fans spot timely link to Meghan Markle's 'Sussex' last name change
Briefly

The latest episode of '1923,' a prequel to 'Yellowstone,' features a scene where Alexandra declares her last name as 'Sussex,' which resonates with current media discussions about Meghan Markle's name change. The customs officer challenges Alexandra, emphasizing the distinction between origin and identity, which prompts her to state her true last name, 'Dutton.' This scene ignited social media reactions, seen as a clever commentary on Markle's situation, especially in light of her recent remarks on family names during an interview with Mindy Kaling, where she expressed the significance of sharing names with her children.
"Alex in 1923 calling herself 'Sussex' is really the cherry on top of this week," one fan wrote on social media, pointing out the ironic connection.
"It's so funny that you keep saying 'Meghan Markle.' You know I'm Sussex now," Markle remarked, highlighting her identity shift after marrying Prince Harry.
