"Royals, they're just like us!" You've seen that headline enough to sometimes doubt it's authenticity. But never has this rang truer than when it comes to jeans. Like the rest of us, royal women wear, maybe even hoard, denim. Kate Middleton loves her skinny jeans while the Queen of Spain prefers a little flare. The Duchess of Cambridge has worn them on numerous occasions to public events and outings, as has her newly minted sister-in-law. So where do royals buy their go-to demin? We did a little research to find the exact brands and styles, and where we couldn't, we found similar options. Happy shopping!
Meghan Markle
Meghan paid tribute to her adopted home, Canada (that's where her show Suits was filmed) with a pair of black jeans from Outland Denim. She wore them several times throughout the royal tour with Prince Harry this month. Evidently, they're super comfortable.

Kate Middleton
For an eight-day visit to Canada, Kate broke out her black skinny jeans from Zara. If this fast fashion retailer is good enough for the royal, it's good enough for me. Luckily, Zara has plenty of black jeans in stock.

Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark, 22, chose a pair of jeans that spoke to her youthful style for a recent walk with a pup. The distressed denim with frayed hems were on-trend, especially when paired with black Chanel ankle boots.

Kate Middleton
Howdy, Kate. The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William attended The Calgary Stampede Parade in 2011 and Kate's cowboy-inspired look was on theme. Though her Goldsign bootcut jeans have long sold out, we found a similar style you can add to your denim repertoire.
Goldsign slim boot cut jeans, $229
Queen Rania of Jordan
Queen Rania doesn't wear jeans often, but when she does, she'll often chooses a classic bootcut style. A suede double-breasted beige jacket completed this casual yet chic ensemble.

Kate Middleton
Kate wore a pair of J.Brand jeans while playing with Prince George at the Gigaset Charity Polo Match in 2015. The dressed-down look was perfect for a day outdoors, where she sat on the grass and chased after her toddler.

Meghan so far has stuck to blue and black denim, but Kate's tried it all. She's not afraid to wear color, as pictured here in 2012. The Duchess of Cambridge wore coral jeans from J.Brand while meeting Great Britain's Hockey Team at the Riverside Arena in London.
J.Brand Alana crop skinny jeans, $228
Queen Letizia of Spain
Like Queen Rania, Queen Letizia of Spain enjoys a classic bootcut jean. She wore a pair it with a graphic tee, a cognac-colored leather jacket, and matching boots.

Princess Diana
Princess Diana was a style icon, so naturally she was fully invested in the mom jeans trend of the '90s. The late princess styled her bottoms with a fun star-print tee, belt, and flats while dropping her children off at school in 1992.
