All eyes may be on Meghan and Harry leading up to the Royal Wedding.
But it was a princely pooch that has tongues wagging.
That’s right, Meghan Markle’s beloved beagle, Guy, has been spotted sharing a ride with Queen Elizabeth II in the days before the big day in Windsor.
A friend kindly alerted me to a very sweet moment we missed yesterday – the Queen travelling with Meghan’s beagle guy spotted by the talented Lainey Gossip https://madaboutmeghan.blogspot.con/2018/05/live-blog-day-before-wedding.html pic.twitter.com/zpQbtg8YeQ

Markle had two dogs before uprooting her life in Toronto, where she was filming the TV show Suits, for royal life in the UK.
Markle, a longtime advocate for adoption over shopping, got both Guy and Bogart, a Labrador-shepherd, from animal shelters.
She adoringly called them her “rescue pups.”
Squee.
But while Bogart remained back in North America with a friend, Guy is clearly getting the royal treatment.
The Queen, of course, has a longtime love of animals.
The Queen recently put down her last remaining Corgi, according to media reports. Her beloved Willow was the last in a line of more than 30 prized dogs she’s cared for over the decades.
Which makes Guy’s presence with her even more heartwarming.
Meanwhile, in the countdown to Saturday’s ceremony, both Prince Harry and Meghan made their last public appearances Friday.
Prince Harry did a walkabout with his brother, Prince William.

And Meghan, accompanied by her mother, Doria Ragland, waltzed into Cliveden House.
That’s where they would retire for the evening.

Animals will feature prominently during the celebrations, too.
After all, what fairy tale wouldn’t be complete without a horse-drawn carriage?
Staff at The Royal Mews apply their final touches, ahead of tomorrow’s #RoyalWedding.
