Meghan Markle and Mum Spend Night at Clevedon House Ahead of Royal Wedding
Meghan Markle and her mother, Doria Ragland, have arrived at Clevedon House to spend the night ahead of the royal wedding tomorrow.
The 36-year-old bride-to-be is being driven to the great I-listed hotel in Taplow, Berkshire, along with her mother.
Meghan was asked how she was feeling with just hours to go until the much-anticipated wedding and replied, “Wonderful, thank you.”
Both Meghan and Miss Ragland looked sleek and glamorous, dressed in high heels, having just come from meeting the head of state.
Their time at Windsor Castle not only included the mother of the bride's first introduction to the Queen, but it was also Harry, Meghan and Miss Ragland's final wedding rehearsal before the big day.
The mother and daughter were accompanied by a small team of trusted helpers who will prepare the bride for her appearance in front of a global television audience of millions on Saturday.
