Meghan told Oprah: “Three days before our wedding we got married. No-one knows that.”

The former actress said the wedding vows they have framed in their home were exchanged between the two of them in secret.

The Daily Mail reported the date on Meghan and Harry’s marriage certificate is May 19. 

“Do we still believe her?” Morgan tweeted on Monday in response to a Daily Mail report headlined “Proof Meghan and Harry did not have a secret early wedding”.
