She told MailOnline that her grandfather signed the 1900 Buganda Agreement and said she has a 'always felt close' to the family.

The Buganda Agreement, also knows as the Uganda Agreement, formed the relationship between the British Uganda Protectorate and the subnational kingdom of Buganda.

It was signed in March 1900 by Buganda's prime minister Sir Apolo Kagwa and British explorer Sir Harry Johnston.

Ms Wiltshire revealed her family's connection to the agreement when both Meghan, 36, and Harry, 33, visited the underground music studios of Reprezent 107.3 FM in Brixton. 

They stopped to chat to people waiting in the crowd - who eagerly took the opportunity to take pictures of them

Inside Reprezent's studios, the couple, who got engaged in November and will wed in May, met presenter Gloria Beyi, 17, host of radio show Glory Talks, who was on air, and her producer, Finn Whitehead, 27

They arrived to tumultuous cheers from the adoring crowd and the Suits actress beamed as she waved to people who had lined the streets.

The Buganda Agreement: Sir Harry Johnston begins relations with Britain

In 1899, British explorer Sir Harry Johnston was commissioned to visit the Uganda Protectorate following a mutiny of Sudanese troops who were used by the colonial government in 1897. 

Sir Harry was told by Britain to carry out detailed research and make recommendations on the territory's future administration.

Just one year later he was signing the Buganda Agreement of 1990 which started British relations with the region for more than 50 years.

It was signed by Buganda's prime minister Sir Apolo Kagwa and British explorer Sir Harry Johnston on behalf of the the UK government.

The kabaka - or king - was now seen to be the recognised ruler of Buganda.      

Buganda was given an advisory council and was made a constitutional monarchy with Britain being able to veto choices made by the king.

Ms Wiltshire said: 'It just means so much. In 1900, my grandfather signed the 1900 Buganda Agreement with Queen Victoria. 

'Because of the royal connection we've always felt close to them.'

She wept as she held their hands and told Meghan: 'Thank you, thank you for all you've done.'

Speaking afterwards, she said: 'I just love Prince Harry. For him to have found someone who he really loves it is amazing. You can feel their love I wish them all the best. 

'I just want to say it was a dream to meet them. I wish them all the best and thank you so much for coming to Brixton.'

Meghan squealed and said she was 'so excited' about her forthcoming wedding to Prince Harry. 

The visit to the urban radio station saw the couple wear headphones in the studio and and chat to dozens of young DJs.

Harry even 'fist bumped' with one DJ and demonstrated that his wife wears the trousers in the relationship after he was asked about gender equality.

Station manager Adrian Newman told him that they had a question for him to which Harry pointed at Meghan and swiftly replied: 'She answers the questions!'

Miss Markle was gifted with dozens of bouquets of beautiful flowers from members of the public
