ROYALS Meghan Markle Reveals She Hid ‘Secret Memento’ From First Date With Harry In Wedding Dress
Meghan Markle has revealed a secret memento from her first date with Prince Harry was hidden inside her wedding dress in an explosive new documentary. The Duchess revealed how the memento was hidden in the veil of her wedding dress in a new TV documentary on ITV called Queen of the World. In the programme, Meghan sees the Givenchy gown for the first time since her wedding. She says: “My goodness, it’s amazing, isn’t it?”
Then she points when inspecting the veil and says: “Somewhere in here, there’s a piece of… did you see it? “The piece of blue fabric that’s stitched inside. It was my something blue. It’s fabric from the dress that I wore on our first date. It’s nice to see it again. It’s beautiful.”
She then reveals the significance of the flowers sown into her veil and how important she made the gesture in tribute to the Royal Family.
The Duchess continues: “For me, including some sort of representation of all 53 of the Commonwealth countries was key and I’d originally said to Clare Waight Keller, the designer, how can we incorporate that?
“Would it be the state flower, country flower of each place?
“And it was her idea to do wild flowers, which I think ended up being a really beautiful way to embody the feeling of it.
“It was important for me, especially now being a part of the Royal Family, to have all 53 of the Commonwealth countries incorporated.”
