To mark the first anniversary of their wedding, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released 13 intimate behind-the-scenes images from their big day at St George's Chapel within the grounds of Windsor Castle.

Posting the photos on Instagram in the form of a video, the couple wrote: "Thank you for all of the love and support from so many of you around the world.

"Each of you made this day even more meaningful."

The clip featured beautiful black-and-white images showing tender moments, such as Prince Harry walking down a flight of stairs with his brother Prince William, Meghan being led down the aisle by Prince Charles, and her holding hands with her mother Doria Ragland in a sweet moment.

Among the collection was a photo of a mystery woman handing the 37-year-old former actress her flowers as she entered the Chapel on the day.

Many have been wondering who the woman in the pale pink dress and fascinator was - and the mystery has now been solved!

It turns out the woman is Prince Harry's assistant, New Zealander Clara Madden.

The 32-year-old Kiwi is reportedly an assistant for the Sussexes and was in charge of keeping their diary in check and everything running smoothly on the couple's special day.

Madden reportedly caused a stir back in 2016 when she began dating Kate and William's media adviser Nick Loughran, months after he split from Rebecca Deacon, the Duchess's then right-hand woman.

At that stage, Madden was a key part of William and Kate's team. They even made a point of meeting her parents when they visited New Zealand in 2014, the Daily Mail reports.

Millions of people around the world tuned in to watch the couple, who recently welcomed their first child, become husband and wife while their loved ones watched on from the church pews.
