Meghan Markle has revealed how she “ate croissants and drank mimosas” the morning of her wedding to Prince Harry in her new Netflix documentary.
The first three episodes of Harry & Meghan, part of the Sussexes’ multi-million dollar deal with Netflix, aired last week, with the final three hour-long episodes airing starting today.
In the fourth episode of the series, the 40-year-old Duchess of Sussex opened up about going “into a calm state” the morning of her wedding.
She said: ‘All I wanted was a mimosa and a croissant and play the song ‘Go to Chapel’ and that’s what I did. It was great.
Meghan Markle, 41, has revealed how she ‘ate croissants and drank mimosas’ the morning of her wedding to Prince Harry in her new Netflix documentary.
“I walked into this really quiet space, I don’t know how it was so quiet. I look back and think, how was she so calm?
The Sussexes’ six-part show, part of their multi-million dollar deal with Netflix, has become the streaming giant’s most watched documentary in a week of release, debuting with 81.55 million hours watched.
The opening installment covered the couple’s courtship and romance, but many were deeply unhappy with the show’s all-out assault on the late Queen’s Commonwealth legacy, with some saying it appeared the couple wanted to “overthrow the monarchy”.
Harry also dropped a number of sly hints at his family, particularly his father and brother, including the suggestion that they had married not for love but rather a woman who fit ‘the mold’.

The duke also said his family members questioned why Meghan needed more media protection than their wives had been afforded, but failed to understand the “racial element”.
Royal pundits were quick to declare the claims made in the trailer yesterday “nonsense”, while one commenter said the series was clearly a “form of revenge”.
In a clip, Meghan’s British privacy lawyer, Jenny Afia, insisted that she had seen evidence of the conspiracy against the Duchess before Lucy Fraser, whose real name is Lucy Meadmore, a former public relations manager who was a mysterious figure. until a week ago, he says, “Meg became the scapegoat.” for the Palace.
The Duchess herself also suggested that she was made a scapegoat, adding: “You’d see.” A story about someone in the family would come up for a minute and they’d say, ‘We’ve got to make that go away.
The Duchess then sings the ’60s soul hit Land of a Thousand Dances, first recorded by Chris Kenner in 1962 and later made into a bigger hit by Wilson Pickett and Cannibal & the Headhunters.
But the royal editor of the Daily Mail, Rebecca English, said last night that only someone “totally ignorant of the media” would suggest that she would steer clear of a story about a member of the royal family in exchange for a derogatory story about Meghan or Harry.
Writing in the Mail, he said he “never heard a negative word” about the Sussexes until “at least six months after their marriage, and then not from anyone within the palace walls.”
In fact, Mrs English believed that the assistants did their best to keep up appearances when it appeared that “all was not well” at the Sussexes’ home.
She added: ‘Staff, they insisted, were leaving for personal reasons or because they had an exciting new opportunity to take advantage of. Never for Meghan.
“Even when I personally witnessed their rounds on a member of their team, leaving this individual crying in humiliation, I was told, with a straight face, that it had simply been a ‘security incident.’
“I had standing arguments with palace staff when I suggested they had saved money with the truth and my fact-checking calls about the stories I intended to publish were met with open sighs of frustration.”
He also said he opted to omit Harry’s “frankly rude and unprofessional behavior towards the press” from his copy, as the 38-year-old’s “impressive charity work deserved to be the star of the show”.
She added: “The truth is that the negative stories about Harry and Meghan only started to emerge when their behavior became so disgusting that it was impossible to hide it,” she wrote.
“And that’s not something I expect you to hear when today’s dramatic finale hits Netflix.”
There were mounting calls overnight to see evidence of the highly damaging claim, with a royal source declaring: “No one is taking any lessons in honesty from them.”
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams also called on the filmmakers to back up the claims made.
Responding to the trailer posted yesterday, Mr Fitzwilliams told MailOnline that it showed “what a huge coup for Netflix this docuseries is”.
He added: ‘The claim is that the Palace used Meghan as a ‘scapegoat’ so that other damaging stories about other royals would go away.
So the question is, for the benefit of which royals and who knew? What other members of the royal family were involved or did the courtiers report without their knowledge?
William was named in an earlier trailer by Harry. This will be catastrophic for the relationship between the once close brothers.
‘What exactly is the evidence to support your claim that Meghan was ‘fed to the wolves’?
“Essentially, the claim is that the institution was working against them and using the media to discredit them with a barrage of negative articles. His lawyer Jenny Afia says that she has seen evidence. However, what evidence will be shown to us?
He added: ‘This is certainly a form of revenge. It remains to be seen after tomorrow’s series airs, if the royals will respond, and if so, how.
