Meghan Markle could be barred from becoming US president by 211-year-old amendment to the Constitution.
The Duchess of Sussex could be prevented from running for US President by a little-known constitutional amendment made 211 years ago.
A tweak was made to the constitution in 1810 to bar anyone who receives 'a title of nobility bestowed from a foreign power' from holding office, according to experts.
The centuries-old amendment was initially proposed to stop Napoleon’s nephew from seeking power after his brother married American socialite Elizabeth 'Betsy' Patterson amid speculation their son may run for office.
