as a little boy, prince harry was a cheeky pageboy when princess diana's brother, charles spencer, tied the knot. and prince william got a lot of camera time fidgeting in his seat at prince andrew's wedding to sarah ferguson. but he really seemed to love that carriage ride around london. and on the eve of their wedding, harry and meghan will be spending the night apart. >> harry will be with william who will be steeling his nerves at the coworth park hotel. >> meghan and her mother are staying nearby at the cliveden house hotel. >> they're staying at the hotel. >> both he tells will remain open to the public. but guests will have zero chance of getting near the bride and groom, who will have royal guards and their own private wings. >>> and security will be tight in windsor. today, i got a glimpse of what is being done to keep everyone safe. do you think there are concerns for terrorism? >> tlichl is a threat everywhere. that's the reality today. >> city of london police were out in full force today. on horse back. on foot with machine guns. some 3,000 of them will gear up to contain th
