Just heard CNN promo for their live coverage of the Royal Wedding beginning at 4:00AM ET.

I'm going to have to go back in my memory, and talk to my family who has also followed Royal weddings previously, to which station in the United States is the best as far as getting background before the wedding and during the wedding and afterwards.

Does anybody have a strong feeling? As I'm sure that multiple channels will be covering with commentary?

Here's an article about how/where to watch. Not sure which one will have the best commentary, but maybe someone else can weigh in please:

I'm sure major networks and cable news outlets will carry at least some of the wedding festivities. I will probably watch CNN or NBC but can also watch CBC coverage on Windsor, Ontario TV station.

Royal Wedding
Complete coverage as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tie the knot at Windsor Castle.

Wow only 6 days away. I wonder who will walk her down the aisle.

Her mum, hopefully.

I'm hoping he'll change his mind, it all seems very melodramatic to me. Must be so hard for him though, knowing that one day, when Meghan has children, their other grandad will be the King of England.

*oops, sorry, King of the UK (doesn't sound as good though)

BREAKING NEWS:

Meghan's dad says he is NOT going to the wedding:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...tend-Royal-Wedding-suffered-heart-attack.html

TMZ reports that Thomas suffered a heart attack six days ago, but had checked himself out of the hospital in order to attend the royal wedding.

However, now that the info about the posed photos has come out, he doesn’t want to embarrass anyone. Earlier photos by paparazzi were unflattering, so...

Orchestrated by his other daughter, Samantha Markle, he posed for photos that he hoped would show him in a more flattering light.

Why am I not surprised that Samantha had a hand in this! Poor Meghan. If I were Meghan, I’d walk down the aisle by myself. That’s what I did, since I refused to have my alcoholic father at my wedding. Why bring in a substitute? She is an independent woman who doesn’t need to be “given away.”

Good point!

I've read that Meghan's mother has already arrived in London to help with last-minute wedding preparations. If Meghan wants someone to "give her away", why not let Mom do the honors? This young couple seems to be bucking other royal traditions, so having Meghan's mother walk her down the aisle would be non-traditional but lovely.

Shame on Samantha! No wonder Meghan didn't invite her siblings to the wedding.

We've hardly heard a peep out of Doria, she has kept a dignified silence and I'm sure she'd do a great job. Does she have any other kids?

Yes, if Meghan wants to be “given away” it would be lovely to have her mother do it instead of substituting a man other than her father. But I also see nothing wrong with walking by herself if her Mom doesn’t want to have that role.

It would not surprise me one bit if Samantha tipped off the news that the photos were staged. She is determined to ruin Meghan’s wedding. :mad:

What is up with them? If they'd shown any class they could have had a steady stream of income over the years by doing tasteful photo shoots for Hello magazine and the like every time they did up their house or one of them got married, had a baby christened etc. Like Kate Middleton's family. By advertising that they're persona non grata with their royal connection they've blown it for themselves as well as embarrassing her.

I so agree.

At first I thought her dad did the photo shoots to have money to spend when over there...but I kept thinking he may be to proud to ask Meghan for spending money, then I thought she would give him money without being asked. Yet, who takes pictures of someone being measured in the front window of store? That is done in a dressing room away from public. It was also pretty late in the time line for her dad to send measurements for a tux. He would be an odd size (tall and plump) not an off the rack up to be altered. Yes, tux could have been made quickly but hey had all this time, why wait to last minute? Something seemed off.

I was wondering why her mom even agreed to talk to Oprah...why take the chance and then get photographed? This happened, mom leaving Oprah’s house with gift bags. Then it got hushed up pretty quick. Oprah is real private too like the Queen, even to the point of being rude at times. O knew what the royal family guidelines/rules etc were. O should have waited until after the wedding.

Mom should have known better. I am still wondering why mom is not in England yet! Is she really going?

I can see Meghan never coming back to visit anyone in her family. She cannot trust any family and some old friends to stay quiet. They all appear to want fame and of course money.

Hopefully mom will listen and behave so she can attend the wedding.

Harry will protect Meghan as much as he can and the royal family for the most part will rally around her....she needs to be Leary of Duke of York, Fergie for sure.

Meghan can walk down the aisle by herself, maybe with mom, Prince Charles....or even Prince Harry....this wedding is different in many ways.

With all the drama, no matter how strong Meghan is, I hope her day is very special, peaceful and fun for her and Harry.

As for Samatha and her brother...they are trouble makers, jealous, and caused a lot of the problems just like they wanted to.

No wonder both PH and Meghan did not invite friends and family....they knew which ones talk to much...one they just are not close too....it’s their day.....PH old flame needs to move on, she is not special.

I intend to pull an all nighter in my pjs, paper crown, with one can of Coke and bottles of water with my Subway steak and cheese sandwich 3am snack. Everyone else will be sleeping. I cannot wait to see how close some people came to picking out her dress, her tiara, what Harry wears, and everything else....were we good sleuths or not? Wait and see!

I will be checking here too to see if there are any comments.

These are MOO .

<respectfully snipped>

Meghan's mother arrived in London several days ago to help with last-minute wedding preparations and spend Mother's Day with her daughter. Several media articles about her mom's trip to London.

I&#8217;m scunnered hearing from her and the son the sooner they disappear from the press the better.

DM isn&#8217;t buying the heart attack story:

DailyMail.com can reveal however that Meghan&#8217;s father did not seek medical attention on the day of his 'heart attack,' and was instead inside his clifftop home in Rosarito the entire day.

Two days later he was seen grabbing a Happy Meal and frosted beverage at a McDonald's drive-thru.

A heart attack or a gas problem?!

Shopping spree: Thomas was seen purchasing Gas-X medication, a bottle of milkshake and a can of Heineken lager the day after his 'heart attack' (Thomas above one day after his 'heart attack')
