Meghan Markle gave some details about her 2018 wedding to Prince Harry, including what was going through her head at the time.
On the day of our wedding, I went into a really calm space. I was like, 'How was I so calm?' All I wanted was a mimosa, a croissant and to play ‘Going to the Chapel,’ and that’s what I did, and it was great," the 41-year-old said in the new Netflix docuseries, Harry & Meghan, which premiered on Thursday, December 15.
"I knew when we got to castle for the actual wedding – how funny is that to say — that people would be lining the street! Me and my mom were like, 'What is going on? Look at all these people,'" she recalled.

Meghan added, "H and I are really good at finding each other in the chaos. When we find each other, we reconnect – 'Oh, it’s you.' It’s not that the rest of it doesn’t matter, but the rest of it feels temporary."
Elsewhere in the docuseries, the pair set the record straight on leaving the royal family. After meeting with Harry's brood, the two decided it was best to move elsewhere for their own mental health and sanity.
