Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are due to get married on Saturday (May 19) in Windsor with the world’s media descending on the Berkshire town to cover the big day.

Research firm Euromonitor said that coverage of the wedding would boost the profile of the UK as a destination.

Euromonitor consultant Alexander Goransson said: “Meghan and Harry’s wedding will continue to keep the UK in focus, especially from a US perspective, which is likely to impact tourism in the coming years.
