The wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on May 19 last year was a grand affair that was viewed by millions of people across the globe. However, the two-and-a-half hour live telecast clearly left someone wanting for more, because reportedly private photos from the Royal wedding were recently leaked. So, how did hackers manage to breach the Royal security?
