\n\tMeghan Markle<\/a> and Prince Harry pulled into 13-degree weather at Park City, UT for the Sundance<\/a> Sunday AM premiere of the documentary they EP\u2019ed, Cookie Queens<\/a>. This comes after the pic\u2019s world premiere last night in Salt Lake City, UT. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe Alysa Nahmias directed documentary follows four ambitious Girl Scouts with big personalities and ambitions, who are competing in a cookie sales industry worth $800 million. WME Independent and Submarine are co-repping sales on the movie. <\/p>\n

\n\tTalking to Deadline at the Eccles Theatre, the Suits actress and Duchess of Sussex shared the lessons she learned as a Girl Scout, which she keeps with her today: \u201cIt really embeds such great values from the get-go. I was a Girl Scout, my mom was a troupe leader, and I think the value of friendship, of being dedicated to a goal as you can see that in Cookie Queens, it\u2019s so reflective of how these girls stick with something that\u2019s important to them and don\u2019t give up. And self belief is an integral value that comes with being a Girl Scout.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tIn the documentary, little Olive sells 12,000 boxes (spoiler alert), a record which Markle said she never ever hit.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI don\u2019t remember,\u201d beamed the Duchess of Sussex about her Girl Scout cookie sales records, \u201cbut it certainly wasn\u2019t 12,000! But I think I did really well.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe didn\u2019t have the same perks and leverage of using social media and VENMO, and QR codes that the girls use these days. It was really about a charm and a smile and who doesn\u2019t love a Girl Scout cookie? It\u2019s a pretty easy sell.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMarkle\u2019s favorite cookie?<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think universally, Thin Mints is most people\u2019s favorite.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tPrince Harry\u2019s? \u201cThe shortbread cookies and he loves the Samoas.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tIs Princess Lilibet of Sussex bound to join the Girl Scouts? <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think we\u2019ll continue to explore whatever feels right,\u201d said Markle, \u201cAlysa (the director) is a mom of a daughter, and I think for both of us working on this project it\u2019s been incredibly special as parents, as mothers to be able to see something our girls will be able to enjoy and watch as well.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle and Prince Harry pulled into 13-degree weather at Park City, UT for the Sundance Sunday AM…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":111953,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[35324,489,9,24,63,122,124,123,49968,35325],"class_list":{"0":"post-111952","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-queens","8":"tag-cookie-queens","9":"tag-meghan-markle","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-new-york-city","12":"tag-nyc","13":"tag-queens","14":"tag-queens-headlines","15":"tag-queens-news","16":"tag-sundance","17":"tag-sundance-film-festival"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=111952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/111952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=111952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=111952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=111952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
