Telemundo Announces Wall to Wall Royal Wedding Coverage on 5/19, Followed by AL ROJO VIVO Special  Image

Telemundo announced its coverage of the Royal Wedding with wall-to-wall live programming on Saturday, May 19 starting at 5 AM ET/2 PT followed by "Megan y Harry, La Boda Real," an "Al Rojo Vivo" special airing on primetime at 10 PM ET/9 CT. Emmy-award winning anchor and journalist María Celeste Arrarás will lead the coverage, produced in collaboration with NBC and featuring conversations with experts, friends of the Royal Family, and correspondents in Windsor, London and Rosarito, the Mexican town where the father of the future princess lives.

"I've had the opportunity to cover several royal weddings, but none like this. Megan and Harry's wedding actually has the Cinderella factor: It's like a fairy tale," María Celeste commented. "We'll watch as a young actress from Los Angeles sees her dreams come true and becomes the first British princess born in the United States."

María Celeste and "Al Rojo Vivo" correspondents Rodner Figueroa, Nicole Suárez and Enrique "Quique" Usales will report from Windsor Palace, the site of the Royal Wedding, as well as from London and other places in the United Kingdom to document the couple's journey and the reaction of the British public. They'll consult with expert royal-watchers, friends of the Royal Family and fashion commentators to produce the most complete coverage of this eagerly awaited event on US Spanish-language television.
