Last weekend we saw what was dubbed the 'biggest wedding of the year' between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, now known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Now, it has been revealed that there was a hidden meaning behind the number plate of the car the Duke drove to their wedding reception.

Having changed out of their wedding ceremony attire, the couple were pictured getting into a beautiful blue E-type Jaguar Concept Zero. As Prince Harry took to the wheel, driving the couple of their wedding reception, the photographers took photos of the happy couple, however many didn't realise, until later, the significance of the number plate which said E190518.

Although to many it is just a letter with some numbers the eagle-eyed fans will have noticed that it is actually their wedding date, 19-05-18 (19th May 2018). Cute! This was very different to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding car number plate which said 'Just Wed'.

Following the amazing wedding day on Saturday, Kensington Palace have just released some official photos from the special day. The photos show the happy couple with close members of the family.

A second photo released shows the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with the Bridesmaids and Page Boys including Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

A third photo taken in black and white, shows the happy couple on the steps outside the chapel where they got married. The Duke is sitting behind his new bride, with his hand gently resting on the Duchess's shoulder.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, now known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, married at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle on Saturday the 19th May. Watch a clip from the ceremony below, where Prince Harry tells that she looks amazing.

The ceremony was attended by a number of celebrities including Elton John, David and Victoria Beckham, George and Amal Clooney, musician James Blunt, actor Idris Elba, and American TV host Oprah Winfrey. See some of the celebrities in the gallery below.
