While much of the world watched every step of the ceremony on Saturday - whether on news channels, Facebook or YouTube - the official royal portraits from Meghan and Harry's royal wedding have only just been released.

The main photo (above) was taken by photographer Alexi Lubomirski at Windsor Castle. It shows the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex posing with their young bridal party (you can find out who they are here), as well as Charles and Camilla, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip, Prince William and Kate Middleton and Meghan's mother Doria Ragland.

And what is perhaps most remarkable about this photo of Meghan and Harry with their wedding party is Prince George's cheshire cat grin:
