On Sunday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex celebrated their first wedding anniversary by releasing some unseen photos from their special day. The royal couple posted the images as part of a video montage on their newly-opened Instagram account. Not only was it lovely for royal fans to see the behind-the-scenes pictures, but one snapshot even helped to solve a year-long mystery surrounding Meghan's flowers. When the Duchess entered St George's Chapel, she was handed her bouquet by a female guest, and the televised footage made it difficult to work out exactly who the guest was. Twitter fans had suggested that it could have been the Duchess of Cambridge, or the Queen's assistant private secretary Samantha Cohen. However, the new clearer photo from the big day revealed the woman to be Prince Harry's assistant Clare Madden.

The accompanying music to the video was This Little Light of Mine, which was chosen by the royal couple.

Their Royal Highnesses exchanged vows at St George's Chapel within the grounds of Windsor Castle on May 19th, 2018.
