Royal wedding: A look back at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s first year of marriage

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their first son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor  less than two weeks ago. He arrived almost a year after they tied the knot at St George’s Chapel, in the grounds of Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018. Millions of people tuned in to watch the spectacular ceremony take place, which featured one particularly sweet moment between the loved up pair.

The royal wedding service began with the Right Reverend David Conner reading the preface.

He said: “Marriage is given as the foundation of family life in which children are born and nurtured and in which each member of the family, in good times and in bad, may find strength, companionship and comfort, and grow to maturity in love.”

At this point, Prince Harry turned to his bride with a huge grin on his face.

Meghan then smiled sweetly back, in a moment that foreshadowed what their first year together would entail.

Commenting on Harry and Meghan’s first wedding anniversary, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams said the couple have had a “truly amazing year” that has also featured numerous trips abroad.

This included a tour around Australia, New Zealand, Tonga and Fiji, as well as Morocco and even Dublin.

Mr Fitzwilliams told Express.co.uk: “Their wedding was a global event and subsequently they have become one of the world’s power couples.

“They have had successful trips abroad, Meghan coped brilliantly when pregnant.

“The charities they espouse from mental health to Invictus and the causes Meghan supports such as female empowerment have been much boosted.

“They have positioned themselves as an activist couple with a truly international reach inspired by Diana.

“How will they celebrate? With Archie, undoubtedly. Obviously we won’t be told.

“It would be a wonderful idea if they released family photos which may well be their intention.

“The world is waiting for more photos of Archie and this would be a way to get their many admirers across the globe to celebrate an amazing year with them.”
