The Duke and Duchess of Sussex depart Windsor Castle for a reception hosted by The Prince of Wales at Frogmore House, in a silver blue Jaguar E-Type Concept Zero. This vehicle was originally manufactured in 1968, and has since been converted to electric power #RoyalWeddingpic.twitter.com/hRrxEUlFlJ

Meghan Markle wore a form-fitting wedding gown for the nuptials, but for the recption she wore a much more carefree dress. According to The Sun’s Emily Andrews, Stella McCartney designed the sleeveless long dress that was tigher on top and flowed at the bottom. To me is the type of dress a California hippie would wear to her big day and one I would love to own. It is very Bohemian.
Another change for the nighttime affair is that the Duchess of Sussex wore her hair in her signature loose bun. Which is so much more her style than what we saw with earlier in the day.
When it comes to her husband, Prince Harry slipped out of his military attire and into a tux. Looking as debonair as ever.
Instead of taking a horse-drawn carriage to the party, they rode in a silver-blue Jaguar E-Type. As the Duke of Sussex opened the door for his lady and helped her and dress inside of it, he looked like Bond, James Bond. The best moment came as he walking over the driver’s side of the car to get in, she leaned over to open the car door for him from inside. She might be a duchess now, but she is still a girl in love with a guy and she is not too good to open her man’s car door. I am sure she will be over that soon as most wives are after they have been married while.
Once we saw Meghan Markle in her dress, the awwwdorable page boys and bridesmaids walk her into the church and the look of love that she shared with her now husband Prince Harry, then it was time to focus on the next big moment at the Royal Wedding. That highlight came from her Suits costar Rick Hoffman, who had an expression more like his character Louis Litt than himself. One that stuck out so much in a sea of fascinators, it became the meme of the day.
Why did he look so miserable to see his friend his get married? Did he want to marry her, so he is upset she is marrying someone else? Turns out, it actually had nothing to do with the Duchess of Sussex. He took to Instagram to explain the face that launched a thousand memes, “To answer any questions about the weird face that was made at the wedding. Imagine sitting next to people to your right, not knowing which person it was, that has halitosis. Hence the face that is apparently all over the place.” Then he added, “So it is as simple as that, Charlie.”
I would have that same expression that he did. Who hasn’t sat next to someone who has the worst breath and made that same exact face? There is nowhere you can go and your stuck breathing in their awful breath. With each one of their exhales, you are stuck smelling it with each inhale. There is nothing you can do because you cannot move and you have to breathe to live.
Now you know why he looked like Louis Litt after Harvey screwed him over and Rachel has to go to Mike to talk to Harvey to smooth things over with Louis. I am going to miss Mike and Rachel on Suits, but we know she is in a much better place, a much much much better place.
I just have to say it is moments like this one that makes me love Hoffman even more. He is the most lovable character on Suits. So loveable, you just want to hug him and squeeze him.
After what seems like forever, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle finally got married today. It was a beautiful, but long, ceremony that was witnessed by several people us Yanks would recognize. Celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney, James Corden, David and Victoria Beckham, Priyanka Chopra, Serena Williams, Idris Elba, Elton John, Carey Mulligan and Marcus Mumford, James Blunt, Gina Torres, Patrick J. Adams and Troian Bellisario, Rick Hoffman, Sarah Rafferty, Abigail Spencer, Gabriel Macht and Jacinda Barrett.
They all got to see her walk down the aisle with Prince Charles in white silk off the shoulder dress designed by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy. The 5-meter long veil had a flower representing each of the 53 countries of the Commonwealth and one for her native state of California.
Then when it was over, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex walked out of the church and gave the onlookers a sweet kiss. There first of many.
Like the fairy tales say, “They lived happily ever.” Until they get a divorce…
Before Meghan Markle had her big wedding to Prince Harry today, she got married to Patrick J Adams on Suits last month.
Her TV husband had some sweet words for her, he wrote, “Going to bed now and thinking a lot about the strange surreal and wonderful day my friend Meghan is going to have tomorrow. Meghan – wherever you are – we are so grateful to be here to watch you both take this monumental step together. Love deeply and live well. #RoyalWedding.” Then he followed it up with, “I’m beginning to think she might not actually be out getting milk.” A reference to his Tweets when she announced her engagement. I hope she gave him some milk as a joke.
Something he and the cast and crew of Suits did not drink (except for that baby who is getting some) when they celebrated their coworkers’ nuptials last night at the last supper. Look how happy they are to see her marry a prince. Something 8 years ago, they would never have expected to happen. But it did! And now the actors are being treated like royalty for a day, today.
Meghan Markle might only have one family member at her wedding tomorrow, but several of her castmates from Suits will be there too. Today, Rick Hoffman, Gina Torres and Sarah Rafferty all spoke to Today about if they knew she was dating Prince Harry before we did. Hoffman says that he knew about it early on. The two of them talked about it in her trailer and he got all giddy when she told him that she was dating a Prince.
He also told a sweet story that 5 years ago, he was about to go dateless to a wedding in Paris because he just broke up with his girlfriend. Not wanting him to be alone, she offered to go with him. Of course, he said yes and the producers made it possible for them to go. Now, he flew across the pond to go to another wedding, hers to Prince Harry.
Rafferty also said that even though Markle and Patrick J Adams are no longer part of Suits, their spirit is still felt on the set as they are shooting season 8 without them. Today, also broke that season 8 of Suits and Torres’ spinoff will debut next year.
One last note, even though Adams, who is there with his wife Troian Bellisario from Pretty Little Liars, and Gabriel Macht, who is there with his wife Jacinda Barrett from Real World, were not part of this interview, they are in London and will be at the wedding with their costars. I am so happy she invited them because they always felt like a family on the show, now we know they really are one.
