Now, their wedding photographer, Alexi Lubomirski has shared more insight into the picture, sharing the same image to his own Instagram page. The royal wedding photographer revealed that he was given three minutes to take some informal photographs in the rose garden, resulting in the candid shot of Harry and Meghan laughing together.

He wrote: ‘2 years ago today, Kensington Palace called my phone, out of the blue, whilst i was sitting in a hospital waiting room, waiting for a family member to wake up after a 10 hour brain surgery, to ask if I would be interested in doing a project together [sic].

‘Two weeks later, i was shooting the official engagement portraits of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The next year, I was shooting the official wedding portraits at Windsor castle [sic]. This is an outtake from the Rose garden where we were given 3 minutes to take some informal pictures of the happy couple after the wedding reception. Happy memories! X p.s. the family member is doing great!’
