Royal wedding: Adele toasts Meghan, Harry and Princess Diana 'upstairs' with Instagram selfie
The musician popped on a veiled fascinator to toast the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex
Adele's emotional message to the royal newlyweds included a brief commemoration to Diana, Princess of Wales.
The musician may not have been a part of the celebrations, but it didn't stop her from popping on a veiled fascinator to toast the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, on their wedding day.
"Congratulations Meghan and Harry," she captioned the Instagram post, holding aloft a champagne flute. "You're the most beautiful bride. I can't stop thinking of how happy Princess Diana is upstairs x."
The service in St. George's Chapel subtly commemorated the groom's mother, the late Princess of Wales, in several ways. Diana's favourite flower, forget-me-nots, were tucked into the bride's bouquet, which Harry had handpicked from Kensington Palace's private gardens they day before the wedding.
Diana's sister, Lady Jane Fellowes, delivered a reading at the service, while one of the songs included was "Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer", which was sung at Diana's funeral in 1997.
Meghan also wore an emerald-cut aquamarine ring that once belonged to Harry's mother to the reception.
