A documentary series about the royal family is set to give the world further insight into the lives of our favourite royals, including the moment Meghan Markle saw her wedding gown the day before her marriage to Prince Harry on May 19.

Queen of the World is a new series which shows members of the royal family sharing their thoughts about Queen Elizabeth and the Commonwealth, the family of nations linked to the UK.

The documentary will be released ahead of Meghan and Harry undertaking their royal tour of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga - their first official tour of Commonwealth nations as a married couple.
