We'll take a Kate, please

If there's one country that rivals us Brits in our love for the royal family, it's the United States.

Now that one of their own, Meghan Markle, has married Prince Harry in a whirlwind romance, expecting their first child any day now, we're pretty sure America loves our royals even more.

Case in point: Paintbucket Nails – based in NYC – recently launched a Royals collection (tagline 'Harry might be off the market, but you're still a princess'), and we're unsurprisingly obsessed.

There are five manicure designs, all graphic and colourful styles and each design named after a member of the royal family: namely Kate, Charlotte, Meghan, Camilla and Bea.

Seriously cute. (We're sure the Queen and Eugenie will be added in at a later date?)

One thing's for sure, next time we're stateside, we'll be stopping by Paintbucket to get ourselves a royal mani.
