Millions tuned in to watch the blushing — and stunning — bride, Meghan Markle, arrive
at Windsor Castle for her royal wedding.
Sitting beside Markle during the arguably most important car ride of her adult life
was none other than her mother, Doria Ragland.
While you've likely heard bits and pieces about Ragland over the course of Markle's
engagement to Prince Harry, you might not know much about her relationship with Meghan,
as she's been known to keep a relatively low profile.
So how close are Markle and her mama bear?
Here's the truth.
Adorable nickname
In an archived post from Markle's now-deleted blog, The Tig, the duchess revealed that her
mother calls her "Flower."
Markle didn't elaborate on the nickname's meaning, or even its origin, so we can't venture
a guess as to why Ragland chose it.
Even so, just knowing that Markle's mama has an endearing title for her baby girl is verging
on cuteness overload.
Role model
Markle shared quite a bit about her relationship with her mom on her blog, including some valuable
life lessons her mama passed on.
In one of her posts, Markle explained that both her mother and father came from poor
backgrounds.
This may have been what inspired them to make the conscious decision to give back to the
community when they could, whether that meant supplying homeless shelters with holiday turkeys
or sparing change for the needy.
Markle wrote,
"This is what I grew up seeing, so that is what I grew up being: a young adult with a
social consciousness to do what I could."
Life changer
It's no surprise that Markle dubbed her mother one of "the 10 women who changed her life"
when she penned an article for Glamour.
Markle explained,
"My mom's a yoga instructor, but she does social work, as well, and she works specifically
with the geriatric community."
Markle said her mom also spends her life as a "free spirit" and runs marathons on the
regular.
The pair share a love of fitness: They were photographed with their yoga mats in tow back
when Markle was still dating Prince Harry.
Markle said although she and her mother have lots of fun spending time together, she still
finds, quote, "so much solace in her support."
She compared their relationship to that of best friends, so it's obvious these two amazing
women have a pretty unbreakable bond.
Tough times
In an article she wrote for Elle, Markle opened up about growing up with a white father and
an African American mother in a neighborhood of Los Angeles that was not exactly known
for its diversity.
Markle wrote of the time she came back to visit her mom while on college break.
While Ragland was pulling out of a parking space after a concert, another driver called
her mom a racial slur.
Markle wrote,
"My skin rushed with heat as I looked to my mom.
Her eyes welling with hateful tears, I could only breathe out a whisper of words, so hushed
they were barely audible: 'It's OK, Mommy.'"
Markle said she has since "healed" from these encounters and feels pride, quote, "in being
a strong, confident mixed-race woman."
No doubt her mother is proud of who she has become.
A source of joy
In a post from 2014 entitled "Love Letter" on The Tig, Markle described her fun-loving
mom as a "lover of potato chips and lemon tarts."
She went on to explain that her mom will break into the "sweetest little dance you've ever
seen" if you play "Call Me" by Al Green.
Markle wrote,
"And you will smile.
You won't be able to help it.
You will look at her and you will feel joy."
Social media story
Before Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's relationship was made public, Markle shared aspects of
her life with friends and fans on Instagram.
Although she has since deleted her account, many of the pictures remain elsewhere on the
web, because almost nothing online is gone forever.
In some of the photos from Markle's now-extinct Instagram account published on Express, you
can even tell just how close Markle is with her mom.
From a sweet kiss on the cheek to a beyond sweet picture of Markle posing beside her
mom at her graduation from the University of Southern California in 2016, it's obvious
Markle and her mom have a super close and comfortable relationship.
'Amazing' mother-in-law
When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sat down for an exclusive interview with BBC after
announcing their engagement, they both got the chance to dish about each other's parents.
Naturally, the couple had only great things to say.
While discussing meeting one another's parents, Markle told the interviewer that she and her
then-fiancé were able to "spend a lot of time" with Ragland, especially when the two
were dating on the down-low.
Markle also mentioned how her mom is "so much fun."
Harry agreed.
"Her mum's amazing!"
While there's no replacing Harry's late mother, Princess Diana, having a mother-in-law as
cool as Doria Ragland is probably all kinds of awesome in its own right.

John Cena Posts Provocative Tweet Amid Nikki Bella Relationship Rumors
John Cena just sent out a racy message in the midst of rumors that he and Nikki Bella are getting back together.
The WWE Superstar sent out the below tweet that implies he is ready to cut down on drama and get into a physical relationship. Let's stop messing around, and start messing around, Cena wrote.
The obvious implication here is that he wants to stop testing the waters of resuming a relationship with Bella and just go for it.
This presumption is made stronger by an E! News report that the two were once again spotted together on Monday afternoon.
The pair, who were previously engaged, were seen eating lunch at Civico 1845, a contemporary Italian restaurant in San Diego. San Diego is where the couple lived together before their breakup.
An onlooker at the restaurant said Cena and Bella looked very much together at the restaurant, which the Blockers actor apparently frequents. The meet-up happened just hours after Cena posted his tweet about messing around.
This is just the latest of several cryptic tweets sent by Cena in recent days.
The 41-year-old wrestler tweeted about trying to change someone and working to improve oneself on Wednesday. Many interpret the message to be about his frayed relationship with the Total Bellas star.
Never try to change someone, he wrote. They have every right to live their lives how they want. Instead, look inward and work to be the best you possible..
He also sent another inspirational message of advice on May 20. This one was all about taking a leap and not talking yourself out of something..
We tend to have long lists of why we shouldn't do something, Cena wrote. I am a fan of logic, but fortune favors the bold It's easy to talk ourselves out of something. Instead, go give it a try!!.
Cena and Bella have not officially stated they are back together as of press time.
