Canterbury Archbishop ’empties’ Megan Markle: She did not have a secret royal wedding

The secret royal wedding between Megan Markle and Prince Harry a few days before the official wedding ceremony at Windsor Castle in 2018, which they themselves mentioned in a joint interview, never happened according to Canterbury Archbishop Justin Welby, who allegedly performed the ceremony.

The Duchess of Sussex said in an interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this month that married Queen Elizabeth’s grandson in a secret ceremony under Archbishop Welby, a few days before the luxury wedding in Windsor.

“You know, three days before our wedding, we got married – no one knows that,” he said. “Only the two of us, in our garden, with the Archbishop of Canterbury.”

But Justin Welby refuted this claim, according to the ΑΠΕ-ΜΠΕ. “The legal wedding took place that Saturday” (May 19), Welby said, according to the newspaper Die Welt, adding that he personally signed the marriage certificate.

“I would have committed a crime if I had signed something that was not real.” He said he had “a series of private, pastoral meetings” with Harry and Megan before the wedding, but declined to elaborate on those discussions. “If you talk to a priest, you can expect that this discussion will not be made public.”

British media have previously published one a copy of the marriage certificate showing that the formal wedding took place at Windsor Castle, with the official who drafted this certificate saying that Megan was either confused or misinformed and that the couple had probably exchanged some simple oaths before the archbishop.
