I don't know. What does it mean, she has had? It doesn't make sense to me.

1. She's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen. This means that she has a beautiful smile or her smile is beautiful.

Hi Quoc

Have got is a two-word verb that means the same thing as have (when referring to possession -- see link).

This should not be confused with the present perfect tense of have (in British English).
In American English it's harder to confuse the two since the past participle of get is gotten.
