Royal Wedding LIVE: ‘I’m going to the pub!’ Beaming Harry shares excitement with crowds
PRINCE Harry and Prince William have given royal fans an unexpected surprise this afternoon as they take a stroll outside Windsor Castle to meet with well-wishers ahead of the Royal Wedding.
Crowds of royal fans were treated to an unexpected surprise when the brothers took time to greet those already in the town ahead of Harry’s big day.
Harry, looking relaxed wearing an open-necked white shirt and light jacket, waved to the crowds and chatted to his brother before making a beeline to talk to a young girl waiting among the crowds outside.
He posed for pictures and shook hands with dozens of well-wishers.
The prince appeared to have a neatly-trimmed beard in preparation for his big day.
Flanked by his best man, William, the pair chatted and joked with those gathered outside the castle.
Asked how he was feeling by a member of the crowd, Harry replied: “Relaxed, of course.”
The prince spoke with seven-year-old Meghan O'Shea, from Holyport, near Maidenhead.
Harry noted the 'H' in the little girl's name - like his soon-to-be-wife Meghan Markle - and she said he remarked: "Is that like the one I'm going to marry?

"There's not very many Meghans with an 'H' around."
Little Meghan said of her namesake: "I think she's very nice."
In line with tradition, Harry and his bride-to-be, Meghan, will spend the night before their wedding apart.
Harry will stay at the luxurious Dorchester Collection’s Coworth Park in Ascot, while Meghan is to spend her last night as a single woman at Cliveden House, some 10 miles from Windsor.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will marry at 12pm tomorrow.
Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to make the trip to Windsor to celebrate in person, with many already in the town ahead of tomorrow’s big day.
The ceremony in St George’s Chapel will be followed by a carriage procession through the streets of Windsor, where fans and well-wishers will have a chance to see the happy couple.
