There had been doubts Thomas Markle would attend, after it was reported he underwent heart surgery yesterday.

Hours after her statement, Meghan Markle was seen in Windsor with Prince Harry.

The couple were driven along the procession route with a police escort. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Kate Middleton were also spotted in Windsor for the dress rehearsal for the wedding.

The rehearsal in Windsor drew hundreds of children, parents and pets who were keen to get into the party mood early.
