Meghan Markle’s ‘something blue’ has finally been revealed five years after her wedding day.

The former actress married Prince Harry on May 19th, 2018. The couple tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.

The Suits star stunned in a custom-made Givenchy dress and wore a diamond tiara, which belonged to Queen Mary in 1932. The tiara was her ‘something borrowed’ but her something blue hasn’t been revealed, until now.

Designer Clare Waight Keller made Meghan Markle’s wedding dress and has shared a special detail about her wedding gown.

Keller told Vanity Fair that Meghan had a piece of the dress she wore on her first date with Prince Harry sewn into her dress.

She told the publication: “We basically sewed it into the hem of the wedding dress, so she was the only one that knew that it was there. It was a little blue gingham check.”

“It was the perfect personal memento that was secretly hidden inside the dress,” she added.

Meghan wanted to wear a ‘traditional and classic’ dress on her wedding day.

The designer said the gown wasn’t “overly feminine” but was effortless.

“Not overly feminine, but not really minimal either. That effortless American style, where it just feels really fresh and personal. But it’s not overwhelming. It’s not specific to any particular decade.”

Markle’s wedding dress reportedly cost over €250,000.

Following their wedding ceremony, Markle changed into a halterneck Stella McCarthy gown. She teamed the look with Princess Diana’s beautiful Asprey aquamarine ring.

Royal fans have agreed that Markle’s wedding dress was one of the most beautiful royal wedding dresses of all time, and we have to agree. Her Givenchy dress was something special.
