Royal Wedding 2018: Official Portraits of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Revealed

The first official photographs of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, were released Monday following the pair's royal wedding.

The images were taken by photographer Alexi Lubomirski at Windsor Castle, following the carriage procession. Lubomirski is the same photographer who shot the couple's engagement photos last year.

A Kensington Palace spokesperson said, "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex would like to thank everyone who took part in the celebrations of their wedding on Saturday. They feel so lucky to have been able to share their day with all those gathered in Windsor and also all those who watched the wedding on television across the UK, Commonwealth, and around the world."

The Nielsen company says 29.2 million people in the United States watched the wedding of Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle early Saturday. The London ceremony aired starting at 7 a.m. Eastern time and was carried live on 15 different networks.

The royal wedding telecast on May 19, 2018, topped the 22.8 million people who watched Harry's older brother, Prince William, marry Kate Middleton in 2011.
