It has been exactly eight years since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex captured the world’s attention in a glittering ceremony. The couple tied the knot on Saturday, May 19, 2018, at the historic St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, cheered on by thousands of ecstatic fans lining the streets of Windsor and an estimated peak UK television audience of 18 million and further 29 million in the US.
The star-studded event saw senior members of the Royal Family – including the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip – joined by a dazzling array of A-list Hollywood royalty, including Oprah Winfrey, George and Amal Clooney, Serena Williams, and David and Victoria Beckham. In a poignant moment that made history, the bride was walked down the aisle by her father-in-law, the then-Prince of Wales, after her own father was unable to attend.
To mark the anniversary, Meghan surprised fans by releasing a carousel of throwback images from both the day and night events on Instagram, alongside the caption: “Eight years ago today… [sun and moon emoji] (Photo credit: the wonderful Chris Allerton)”.
