Meghan Marklehad the same reaction to herwedding gownas millions of royal fans around the world: total astonishment.
The special moment when the Duchess of Sussex saw her wedding dress and veil was captured on film forQueen of the World, a new documentary series featuring members of the royal family speaking aboutQueen Elizabethand the Commonwealth, the family of nations linked to the U.K.
A huge smile crosses Meghan’s face as she looks at her bridal outfit from top to bottom, then touches herveil, which features hand-embroidered flowers from each of the 53 counties in the Commonwealth. (There were also a few personal touches: She had the Wintersweet, which grows in the grounds of Kensington Palace in front of Nottingham Cottage, and the California Poppy, the State flower of California, added as well.)
“Fifty-three countries, oh my goodness,” she’s heard saying. “It’ll keep us busy.”
