Crowds been gathering on the Long Walk outside Windsor Castle for hours and now they're being rewarded for their patience. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are riding through the streets of the town, and the procession will culminate with a roughly one-mile section of the Long Walk.
Lynne and Harold, clad in Lycra, cycled 30 miles to get here today.
“The roads were so clear it was wonderful, it was easier to get here than on a normal Saturday,” Lynn said. She added: “It’s been so lovely, everyone has been so friendly.”
This group of friends from Nova Scotia, Canada, have a message of congratulations for the newlyweds.
Monique, originally from Nigeria but now living in London, says she’s only here today for Harry.
“I wouldn’t normally come to these events but it’s Harry and I love him. He’s my adopted son and I’ve loved him ever since his mother passed away. I prayed for him to have a good wife. Meghan seems like a nice person. It’s a good match. She is making history and that’s so important.”

Harry and Meghan are now husband and wife
Harry and Meghan, now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are officially married.
It became official when the Archbishop read this:
