It is believed that Meghan Markle, 36, is celebrating her upcoming wedding to Prince Harry with a group of female friends on Sunday 4 March, as she continues the countdown to her big day. The bride-to-be is reportedly having her hen party at a luxury spa retreat, according to The Mirror. It is thought that friends of the former Suits actress are with her, but unfortunately, her mum Doria Ragland, 61, will be absent from the event as she remains in Los Angeles.

Meghan's future sister-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge, is also thought to be missing the weekend's activity. Instead, Kate, who is pregnant with her third child, is said to be resting. Meghan and Kate made their first public appearance together last week as they took to the stage at the Royal Foundation Forum. The pair looked especially friendly with one another as they entered the forum together, both dressed in blue dresses.

While details of Meghan's hen party have been kept guarded, the actress previously spoke about the event during a walkabout in Edinburgh. The 36-year-old said that she was certain that her hen do would be "fun," when asked by wellwishers. Ahead of her wedding, Meghan is also set to get baptised as she prepares to enter the royal family. Raised as a Protestant, she will convert to Church of England out of respect to the Queen. The Sunday Times reported that her baptism and confirmation will be held at Kensington Palace by Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury. As well as Prince Harry, Meghan's mum, Doria Ragland, and dad, Thomas Markle, are also set to fly to the UK to attend the ceremony.
