The event saw Meghan sing 'God Save The Queen' when Head of the Commonwealth herself --Queen Elizabeth II made an entrance. 

The event also saw Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall and Prime Minister Theresa May in attendance. The Duke of Edinburgh, who retired from public service last year, did not attend the service.

Commonwealth Day is an annual event which celebrates the 53 Commonwealth countries.

The former Suits actress rose to fame after Prince Harry proclaimed his love for the actress publicly. He proposed to Meghan over a dinner he was preparing for them and soon popped the question. The two are set to get married on May 19 at Windsor Castle. 

In another news, there are reports of a TV movie being made on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's love story titled "Harry & Meghan: The Royal Love Story". The film will chronicle the couple's relationship from when they met through friends in 2016.
