Meghan Markle Pays Tribute To Ruth Bader Ginsburg With 'RBG' Shirt, Meaningful Mask

The Duchess of Sussex wore a "When there are nine" mask during a recent podcast appearance.

Meghan Markle honored the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg by wearing a shirt and mask paying tribute to the Supreme Court justice, who died last month at age 87. 

The Duchess of Sussex donned a T-shirt that spelled out the initials “R.B.G.” during a recent sitdown with the Teenager Therapy podcast, which was released on Saturday. 

Meghan’s mask was embroidered with one of the liberal icon’s most famous quotes ― “When there are nine” ― which the justice often said in response to people who asked when there would be enough women on the Supreme Court. 

“People ask me sometimes, when — when do you think it will be enough? When will there be enough women on the court?” Ginsburg is quoted as saying during a talk at Georgetown University in 2015. “And my answer is, when there are nine.”

After RBG’s passing in September, the Duchess of Sussex released a moving statement mourning the death of someone she called “a true inspiration.” 

“With an incomparable and indelible legacy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg will forever be known as a woman of brilliance, a Justice of courage, and a human of deep conviction,” Meghan said in a statement shared with HuffPost at the time. 

“She has been a true inspiration to me since I was a girl,” the duchess added. “Honor her, remember her, act for her.”
