Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have revealed the song they chose for their first wedding dance in a new trailer for the second instalment of their explosive Netflix series.
In a short teaser, the pair can be seen dancing to the joyous 60s soul song Land of a Thousand Dances as they partied with celebrities including Sir Elton John.
Markle says of her 2018 wedding in the Netflix documentary: “I just really wanted the music to be fun. Even our first dance.”
She turns to Harry and asks: “Song of Thousand Dances? A Thousand Dances? I always get it wrong.”
The Duchess of Sussex then sings the Wilson Pickett hit, saying: “That was our first dance. It was so fun. Just spinning like a whirlwind. It was so great.”
In one image, Markle’s bestie Jessica Mulroney sits with the former Suits star’s castmate Abigail Spencer.
In another, Prince Harry whirls his bride around the dance floor.
But among the new images, there are no photos of the royal family including Prince William, despite him acting as best man on the day.
It comes amid anger over the release of the Netflix series, with reports the Prince of Wales is unlikely ever to make up with his estranged younger brother.
Prince William is also said to be distrustful of Prince Harry’s motives given that his memoir, Spare, is coming out early next year.
“All relationships are built on trust but for members of the royal family, who live their life in the spotlight, doubly so,” a source reportedly told the Mail Online.
“The prince is a very private man and what Harry is doing is the anathema of everything he believes. On that alone, many believe it is unlikely he will ever be able to repair his relationship with them. Too much water has gone under the bridge.”
A close friend of Prince Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana, told The Mirror that the Duke of Sussex hopes Prince William and King Charles will watch the series to get a better idea of what he and Markle have gone through.
The source told the paper: “Harry is delighted with the narrative of the documentary and how he and Meghan came across.
‘The reason for doing this was to share their truth on their lives. He feels it told the story he wanted the world to hear and has absolutely no regrets.

Prince William, however, is said to be “infuriated” with Prince Harry for using footage of
Martin Bashir’s “deceitful” Panorama interview with Princess Diana.
The Prince of Wales had pleaded the 1995 interview “never be shown again” after he last year slammed BBC for letting his mum, family and Britain down.
Now, Prince William’s own brother has defied him and sources say he’s “disappointed”, The Sun reports.
