Meghan Markle and Prince Harry tied the knot on May 19, 2018, in a grand ceremony at Windsor Castle, surrounded by loved ones from both sides. Their journey quickly grew with the arrival of their son, Prince Archie, in 2019, followed by a life-changing decision to step back from royal duties in early 2020 and settle in California. In 2021, their family grew again with baby Princess Lilibet. Recently, Markle shared how happy and grateful she feels with her loving husband and kids, and just in time, they are marking a milestone that honors their incredible seven years together.

From royal waves to quiet California days, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have rewritten the royal rulebook with style and heart. Through surprises and smiles, they have built a life that is truly their own. Now, as a special day approaches, fans are getting a rare glimpse into their world like never before.

Seven years of wedded bliss spring to life in Meghan Markle's loving Instagram post on May 19. To celebrate their anniversary, Markle shared a beautiful collage featuring never-before-seen photos tracing their journey from 2016.

Meghan Markle’s message was full of thanks to all who have been supporting their "love story", signing off with “Seven years of marriage.

Before the celebrations, questions about Prince Harry’s strained ties with the royal family and their new life in California stirred up plenty of talk. A correspondent recently shared some eye-opening thoughts on what these moments really mean for the couple—offering a fresh perspective just as their seven-year milestone was near.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond reportedly told the Mirror that Meghan Markle’s recent past black-and-white photo of Prince Harry walking with their children "suggested that he’s walking away from his old life once and for all." This came just after Prince Harry’s explosive BBC interview, where he revealed the King will not speak to him and expressed uncertainty about "how much longer my father has." The timing was striking, as the couple prepared to mark seven years of marriage amid ongoing family tensions and public battles, with Bond adding that, “I very much doubt that there will be anniversary wishes winging their way from the UK to California.”

Bond then went on to say that despite everything, Prince Harry and Markle “have probably become stronger as a couple". She pointed to Meghan Markle’s Netflix show With Love, Meghan and her lifestyle brand alongside Prince Harry’s focus on charity and the Invictus Games. With so many bridges burned, Bond believed that they “must rely ever more heavily on one another,” making their marriage “even more imperative to work hard at.” Bond reflected that their journey from a hopeful 2018 wedding to today has been tough but has likely made their bond even more resilient.
