Exactly a year to the day when Meghan debuted her less-than-perfect curtsy to the Queen, the Duchess of Sussex has clearly been practising for another go in Sandringham today.
Meghan came under fire for her poor attempt last year, where she did not go down far enough and was shown-up by Kate's more polished effort.
This year, the pregnant Duchess was able to pull off a much improved deeper curtsy, with her hands clasped together and head bowed as a sign of respect outside the St. Mary Magdalene church.

The pregnant Duchess, dressed in a modern chic outfit of dark colours and high heeled boost, placed one leg behind the other and bent her knee to the monarch, as an age-old sign of respect for the Queen.
Nerves seemed to get the better of the confident actress as she curtsied for the Queen, according to Grant Harrold, who said on ITV's Good Morning Britain that Meghan's mistake was bobbing too low last year.
The royal butler was on the show to discuss the etiquette around re-gifting unwanted Christmas presents, when he was asked to demonstrate the correct way to curtsy by presenters Charlotte Hawkins and Kate Garraway.
He promptly jumped up and explained: 'What you should be doing, for a lady, is the right foot behind the left, and then it is a gentle bob.
'You keep the hands in because you're not a penguin,' he added.

The Duchess of Cambridge, who politely curtsied to her husband's grandmother alongside Meghan, pulled it off with aplomb, according to Mr Harrold, who said pregnant Kate got it 'right'.
Kate kept her back straight and bent slightly at the knee in her black heels, however Meghan dipped too low and bowed her head.
Princes William and Harry simply nodded their heads beside their respective other halves, in front of the gathered crowds eager to catch a glimpse of the royal family's new 'fab four'.

The 37-year-old relied on Prince Harry to tell her exactly when to curtsy last year as she held onto her Chloe handbag.
But this year the Duchess, who came in on Prince Harry's arm, chose to go chic in dark colours and high heeled black boots.
She wore a double breasted tailored £2,250 coat from the VB line, as well as a pair of boots by David Beckham's wife. The stylish Duchess also carried a £1,200 powder box bag by the Spice Girl turned designer. However, she was matched perfectly with her husband who wore a lighter shade of blue.
The former suits actress who married Prince Harry in May also wore black, calf height boots over a dark dress, coat and matching hat with dark blue feathers protruding from it.
Kate and Meghan reportedly fell out over the last year with Kate being reported as crying at Princess Charlotte's dress fitting for Meghan's wedding

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
