WINDSOR, England—As Queen Elizabeth II prepares to meet Meghan Markle’s mother before the actress’ wedding to Prince Harry, one commoner who married into the family is offering a bit of advice: Just relax.

Mike Tindall, the former captain of the England rugby team, says the royal family welcomed him with open arms when he married the queen’s granddaughter Zara Phillips in 2011.

Tindall told ITV that family members can spot it easily when people are nervous.

He says they will “go straight over and take away all of that tension straight out of the room, and that’s what they are amazing at. Then suddenly you’re in the family and they welcome you.”
