Let me tell you about Bishop Michael Curry, the man who stole the spotlight at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal wedding last month. He recently opened up about the exact moment when he realized the love between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex was the real deal. And let me tell you, it’s a story worth hearing.

How Bishop Curry Knew Their Love Was Genuine

In a candid interview with Us Weekly, Bishop Curry shared his thoughts on the couple’s connection. He said, “I remember thinking after I delivered the sermon, once I had preached it, that these two people truly love each other. There’s no doubt about it. You can see it in the way they look at each other. Their love brought all of us together in that moment.”

The Power of Love

Based out of Chicago, Bishop Curry didn’t get much time to interact with the couple before delivering his powerful sermon at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. Yet, his words resonated deeply with millions of people watching from all over the world. He described the significance of Harry and Meghan’s union like this: “Their love for each other bridged two countries—Great Britain and the United States. It brought people of different religious backgrounds, political views, sexual orientations, social classes, races, and nationalities together. For a brief moment, their love showed us the incredible power of selfless love that gives itself fully to another.”

The Freedom to Preach

Even though the couple chose the scripture passage from the Song of Solomon that was read during the ceremony, Bishop Curry was given the freedom to craft his own sermon. He admitted he had no idea how his message would be received globally. “Honestly, I didn’t realize the impact of the sermon for nearly 24 hours because I went to a service afterward. I wasn’t aware of the connection it made. What surprised me, but in a hopeful way, was that the message of love struck a chord. It reminded me that deep down, we all yearn not only to be loved but also to be people who love others unconditionally.”
