Ben Mulroney is co-host of CTV's Your Morning and the son of former Canadian prime minister Brian Mulroney. His wife, Toronto tastemaker and marketing consultant Jessica Mulroney, has long been known for her friendship with the royal bride-to-be.
The Montreal-bred socialite reportedly befriended Markle when the actress lived in the Canadian city during filming for the series "Suits." British royalty expert Katie Nicholl recently told The Canadian Press that Jessica Mulroney has been important to Markle behind the scenes in the "run-up to the royal wedding."
She added, "Apparently she flew over for one of the early fittings of the dress. She's probably one of just two, or maybe even three, people who know who is designing Meghan's dress so she's holding a state secret close to her heart at the moment. And she's on the phone to Meghan all the time; she is the unofficial wedding planner."
