       Prince Charles will walk  Meghan Markle   down the aisle tomorrow, Kensington Palace has announced. The 36-year-old was left with a gaping hole in her wedding party and a last minute decision to make when her dad sensationally dropped out due to ill health. Traditionally, it is the bride's father who walks his daughter down the aisle and presents her to the groom. The Prince of Wales will accompany 36-year-old Meghan as she walks the Quire of St George's Chapel, in Windsor, tomorrow afternoon. But it has been noted  that Meghan Markle will just be walking her father inlaw,accompanied   with just the pageboys and bridesmaids behind her.One more photo below.
