Britain can’t get enough of royal wedding

- BY GREGORY KATZ

LONDON — Unwilling to kiss Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding goodbye just yet, Britain basked Sunday in the scale of the spectacle as major broadcaste­rs kept scenes from the royal nuptials on repeat along with fresh interviews with the bride’s dressmaker.

The newlyweds have not been seen in public since they left Windsor Castle in a rare 1968 Jaguar convertibl­e for a Saturday night reception hosted by the groom’s father, Prince Charles.

They were expected to return to their home at Kensington Palace in London on Sunday, but the palace did not provide updates or details. Markle’s bridal bouquet was laid at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior at the British capital’s Westminste­r Abbey.

British singer Adele posted a message on Instagram Sunday saying, “Congratula­tions Meghan and Harry. You’re the most beautiful bride. I can’t stop thinking of how happy Princess Diana is upstairs x.”

Former British Cabinet minister Peter Mandelson told ITV Sunday that the wedding was so moving that he is now considerin­g proposing marriage to his longtime partner.

“People all over the country are going to feel inspired, they are all going to want to run out and get married now,” he said.
