PRINCE Charles will walk Meghan Markle down the aisle at tomorrow’s Royal Wedding after her dad Thomas pulled out of the ceremony, Kensington Palace announced today.
The US actress’ dad had pulled out of tomorrow’s ceremony this week – unable to attend after undergoing heart surgery.
Meghan’s mum had largely been tipped to walk the bride down the aisle at St George’s Chapel tomorrow, but Kensington Palace today revealed it would instead be her future father-in-law to do the honours.
The statement from Kensington Palace said: “Ms Meghan Markle has asked His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales to accompany her down the aisle of the Quire of St George’s Chapel on her Wedding Day.
“The Prince of Wales is please to be able to welcome Ms Markle to the Royal Family in this way.”
Meghan had yesterday released an emotionally-charged statement to confirm her dad Thomas Markle, who lives in Mexico, would not be able to attend her big day. (The Sun)
