A Nairobi hotel will charge Sh. 1 million to watch the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Posters on the viewing party by Windsor Golf Hotel and Country Club have been doing rounds on social media since last week, advertising an exclusive viewing of the wedding, complete with a “champagne toast and live commentary throughout the ceremony to make this day what can only be described as a True Royal Wedding experience”.
The package also offers a night for two at the hotel and a helicopter ride to Mt Kenya for breakfast.
Prince Henry of Wales, known as Prince Harry, is the second son of Charles, Prince of Wales and Diana, Princess of Wales .
He and Meghan Markle , an American actress best known for her role in the American legal-drama television series Suits , have been in a relationship since June 2016.
Markle will be the first person of mixed race heritage to marry into the British royal family.
The relationship was first acknowledged on 8 November 2016, when an official statement was released from the royal family’s communications secretary addressing the “wave of abuse and harassment” directed toward Markle.
On 27 November 2017, Clarence House announced that Prince Harry would marry Meghan Markle in the spring of 2018.
They were engaged earlier the same month in London, with the Prince giving Markle a bespoke engagement ring made by Cleave and Company, consisting of a large central diamond from Botswana, with two smaller diamonds from his mother’s jewellery collection.
At the same time, it was announced that they would live at Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace following their marriage.
The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh expressed their delight at the news, while congratulations came in from various political leaders, including the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, and the Leader of the Opposition, Jeremy Corbyn .
After the announcement, the couple gave an exclusive interview to Mishal Husain of BBC News .
