The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's fairytale wedding day has become the focus of a new viral video as footage of the couple discussing the moment they met at the altar has resurfaced on social media site, TikTok.
Harry and Meghan will celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary on May 19, having married in a largescale royal wedding ceremony at St George's Chapel in 2018, which was watched by an estimated global audience of over 1.9 billion people.
The couple have provided a number of detailed insights into their relationship since first meeting in 2016, one of the most revealing of which was in their eponymous Netflix docuseries.
In the six-part show, Harry and Meghan recounted their relationship milestones to date, including their first date, vacations, engagement, wedding and the births of their two children: Prince Archie who was born in London in 2019 and Princess Lilibet who was born in California in 2021 after the duke and duchess split from the monarchy and moved to the U.S.
Uploaded to TikTok by user, harry.nd.meghan, on Wednesday, footage of Meghan walking up the aisle to Harry cut together with clips from royal engagements has been viewed over 100,000 times in 24 hours, with fans praising the couple and the memories they shared from their day with fans in the documentary.

Asked what Harry was thinking as Meghan approached wearing her wedding dress with the world watching, he said it was: "Look at me, look what I got, look what I've found."
"You know, the world was watching us," he said. "But when we were actually at the altar, as far as I was concerned it was just the two of us."
Meghan added that through the spectacle of the event, there was a moment of connection between her and her soon-to-be-husband.
"H and I are really really good at finding each other in the chaos," she said. "When we find each other, when we reconnect to like 'it's you, it's you,' it's not that the rest of it doesn't matter but the rest of it feels temporary."
Captioned "Prince Harry recalls seeing Meghan walk down the aisle and Meghan talks about finding each other in the chaos," the video has received in excess of 8,000 likes and over 200 comments so far, many of which have voiced praise for the royals.
