For over two years, biracial actress Meghan Markle and Britain’s Prince Harry’s relationship have made headlines across the world. The budding romance which sparked after the two were set up on a blind date by a mutual friend, led to one and a half years of dating, and soon after a royal engagement. From Markle’s upbringing by her Black mother, Doria Ragland, and her White father, Thomas W. Markle in View Park-Windsor Hills, to her former marriage to actor and producer Trevor Engelson, many headlines attempted to attack her char- acter and values. Although the actress has received heavy ridicule over her past many people of color and millennials see her as a “true life Cinderella,” using #IssaRealLife- Fairytale and #SecureTheCrown on social media. Despite the mixed views on the couple’s relationship and or relevance, one thing no one can deny, is the royal wed- ding’s display of love and celebration of Black culture! On Saturday, May 19, millions of Americans tuned in to watch Markle and Harry tie the knot at the St. George’s Chapel at the Windsor Castle in England. Some people even hosted royal wedding viewing parities. The ceremony began with Markle walking up the steps of the castle as British royalty, friends, and the couple’s family eyed her modern style bridal gown. Also present during the wedding were Black celebrities, Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, Idris Elba and his financee Sabrina Dhowre, and Markle’s co-star from the TV show “Suits,” Gina behind to start a new life in England.
