According to the Daily Mail, Meghan will be taking out British Citizenship before she marries Prince Harry and in order to comply with the royal family’s beliefs she will be baptized and confirmed as a member of the Church of England.
Prince Harry’s communication secretary, Jason Knauf, revealed the couple are “delighted that the beautiful grounds of Windsor Castle will be where they begin their lives together as a married couple.” He added, “They also want the day to be shaped so as to allow members of the public to feel part of the celebrations too and are currently working through ideas as to how this might be achieved.”
