The moment Meghan Markle stepped out in her Givenchy wedding dress was seen by millions around the world, and ew've since poured over all the details that made the dress and veil so unique.

But haven't you ever wondered what Meghan herself thought about her dress when she saw it for the first time? Well a new documentary has just shed light on the issue, and it turns out the Duchess was just as excited about it as we were.

In a new trailer for Queen of the World (which will air on ITV on 25th September), we get to see a short snippet of Meghan's reaction to the wedding veil which was a symbol of all the Commonwealth countries.

She is seen admiring the veil, saying, '53 countries, oh my goodness. It will keep us busy.'

Oh my goodness indeed. And this is the sweet reaction she had when she was finally reunited with her wedding dress too.

The documentary will also take a look at Meghan's new responsibilities, as well as the Queen's role and her handing over duties to the younger generation of royals.

She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
