결혼식장면들 이모저모 - 전통의 냄새가 물씬 풍기고, 결혼식이 올려지는 Chapel로 가는 연도에는 약 100,000 여명이 환영하는 광경도 장관이었다.
전서방세계의 미디아들은 하루종일 Royal Wedding 을 현장 중계하고, 심지어 중국의 국영방송 CGTN까지 보도하고 있었는데, 한국의 미디아는 깜깜한 밤중으로, 아쉽기 그지 없었다.
요즘 우울한 국민들의 마음을 잠시나마 웃게 해줄 좋은 찬스를 그렇게 한국미디아는 흘려 버린것이다. CGTN의 보도가 "왕실결혼으로 온영국이 제정신이 아닌것 같다"라는 혹평을 했다.
Royal wedding 2018: Prince Charles to walk Meghan down the aisle
Speaking to the BBC from Windsor, American celebrity news site TMZ's Sean Mandell said he had spoken to Mr Markle on Wednesday and that he was "doing well" and "recovering from surgery".
Mr Mandell - who broke the story - said Mr Markle realised on Tuesday that he would not be travelling to Windsor.
"Chest pains were really being exacerbated by the emotional strain he was under," he said.
"When doctors told him he needed to have surgery, he decided he needed to heed that advice, despite the fact he wanted to be here in Windsor for Meghan."
"He definitely feels he's been mis-characterised," Mr Mandell added. "That's why he felt the need to speak out when I reached him."
Ms Markle released a statement on Thursday saying she hoped her father could be given space to focus on his health.

Ms Markle's mother met William and Catherine and their eldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, at Windsor Castle on Thursday afternoon.
She took tea with Prince Charles and Camilla at Clarence House in London on Wednesday.

Asdrubal Medina and Reina Reyes have travelled from the Netherlands to witness Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding.
Waiting outside Windsor Castle on Friday afternoon, they hope to catch a glimpse of Doria Ragland, as she arrives for tea with the Queen.
Their hats carry the Dutch national colours, and their pseudonyms for the next few days are "Willem" and "Maxima" - the names of the King and Queen of the Netherlands.
"It's all so very exciting, we love a royal wedding," said Reina Reyes, who made sure to point out that the English translation of her name is "Queen Kings".
The pair visited London in 2011 to see William and Kate's wedding.
Mr Medina is however disappointed that Prince Charles will be walking Meghan down the aisle, as he was hoping her mother would take on the role.
Ms Markle will spend her last night before the wedding with her mother at the luxury Cliveden House Hotel, in Buckinghamshire, about nine miles north of Windsor Castle.
Prince Harry will be staying 15 miles away at the Dorchester Collection's Coworth Park in Ascot, with his brother, the Duke of Cambridge.
