One of the most eligible bachelors on the Planet is finally giving up his bachelor life
Prince Harry Welsh became famous throughout the world for his love for blond and light-eyed persons, but chose a dark-haired wife. In October 2016, the whole world learned about his new chosen one - actress Meghan Markle. On the eve of the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan, which is due to take place on May 19, the site decided to recall the most famous novels of the young heir to the British crown and find out why his previous girls never managed to become brides.
Natalie Pinkham (2003)
The British TV presenter and 20-year-old Prince Harry spent a lot of time with each other, their pictures were often published by tabloids. However, this union did not last long. The journalist never received the honor of being introduced to the royal family, however, what serious intentions could be expected from a young 20-year-old rake? At that time, the prince was definitely not thinking about marriage. Natalie Pinkham herself got married quite soon after breaking up with him. Today, according to her, friendly relations remain between the former lovers.
Chelsea Davy (2004-2010)

During this time, the couple broke up and got back together many times. The British womanizer was credited with many affairs while Davy took a time out from the relationship. There were rumors that Elizabeth did not favor her grandson's chosen one, and the Chelsea family did not seek to associate themselves with the royal family. Despite this, after the final breakup, the couple maintained a warm relationship: Chelsea even agreed, out of old friendship, to accompany Prince Harry at his brother’s wedding William And Kate Middleton in 2011.
Natalie Imbruglia (July 2009)

Despite the fact that Natalie Imbruglia was 10 years older than the heir to the British throne, a stormy but short-lived romance quickly began between them. They first appeared together in London's Hyde Park at a concert by The Killers, where they did not hesitate to express their sympathy for each other. The romance was bright, but short: soon Prince Harry had a new girlfriend. Perhaps the age difference played a role in the separation; they also said that the couple quickly broke up due to the frivolity of the Prince of Wales.
Caroline Flack (2009)

The young people met at one of the official events in London. The prince's short relationship with Caroline Flack was destroyed by press pressure and the royal grandson's endless attempts to win Chelsea back.
Florence Brundenel-Bruce (2011)

However, the affair with the royal person benefited the model: she attracted the attention of many famous suitors. As a result, in 2013, Florence married a multimillionaire, abandoning her dream of becoming a duchess at the British court.
Molly King (2012)

The young people were seen hugging each other at the Bunga Bunga nightclub. The couple spent time in nightclubs and karaoke; they did not appear together during daylight hours. The romance was limited to a few dates, and Molly King later admitted that the royal grandson was “too cool” for her, an ordinary girl.
Cressiada Bonas (2013-2014)
(Photo: Globallookpress.com) Relationship with the count's daughter Edward and socialite lady Curzon grew into the second serious romance in the prince’s life. They were introduced by Harry's cousin Princess Evgenia. Cressiada Bonas became the best contender for the role of royal wife. The romance developed seriously and rapidly: the couple went on vacation together, attended social and charitable events, the prince accompanied Cressiada to her sister’s wedding. The first crack in the relationship came after the prince’s famous “naked scandal” in Las Vegas. Then the whole world went around with pictures of the heir to the throne playing billiards completely naked.
At the end of 2013, rumors about marriage appeared. But soon, like the first “bride” Chelsea Davy, Bonas decided that she did not like the narrow confines of the life of a royal person: the girl dreamed of becoming an actress, and the queen would never approve of this type of activity as the wife of her grandson Elizabeth II. In April 2014, Cressiada made her debut on the theater stage, and the relationship with the heir to the throne was put to rest.
Jenna Coleman (June 2015)

However, a serious romance did not work out; after this party they were no longer seen together.
Pippa Middleton (December 2015)
(Photo: Globallookpress.com) After the wedding Prince William And Kate Middleton the British press drew attention to the younger sister of the newly-made duchess - Philip (Pippa) Middleton, they said that she could be the match for the only royal bachelor. In the end, Pippa initiated the development of a romantic relationship with Prince Harry. The young people spent their evenings in pubs and visited each other more than once. Rumors about the relationship between the younger brother and sister of the Dukes of Cambridge infuriated Kate Middleton and Her Highness herself. Soon the couple themselves realized that nothing serious would work out for them. In May 2017, Pippa Middleton married a millionaire James Matthews.
Princess Maria Olympia (January 2016)
(Photo: Globallookpress.com) The New Year 2016 began with news of a romantic relationship between the Prince of Great Britain and the Princess of Greece and Denmark. The 31-year-old bachelor was introduced to 19-year-old Maria-Olympia by his cousin Princess Beatrice. The Australian press trumpeted that the prince had finally found himself a real princess and that the British royal family was allegedly delighted with Harry's choice. However, the couple broke up almost immediately as it became known to the general public. Apparently, there was nothing serious between them.
Juliet Labelle (February 2016)
In February 2016, information appeared in the press that the prince had already forgotten his Greek princess and PR specialist Juliet Labelle became his new chosen one. Harry had to fly to the States every now and then to see his girlfriend. The prince even introduced the girl to the royal family, which he immediately regretted. Labelle posted photos of herself in a swimsuit on social networks, which shocked her lover’s relatives. The prince had to break off the relationship.
Athena Onassis-Gussel (August 2016)

However, after her divorce, the relationship between the young people developed into romantic feelings. Despite the fact that Athena has an excellent upbringing, knowledge of etiquette, and even has a fortune six times greater than that of the Queen of England herself, the short romance did not lead to anything. The British press later called the prince a “vest for tears” in the hands of Onassis.
Ellie Goulding (Spring 2016)
(Photo: Globallookpress.com) Right before his fateful meeting with his future bride, Prince Harry was romantically involved with pop singer Ellie Goulding. The young people had known each other for a long time; the prince did not hide the fact that he really liked Golding, but the royal family did not share his passions. The couple first appeared together at the Audi Polo Challenge sporting event. However, just a few weeks later, Prince Harry left for the United States, where he became interested in Meghan Markle.
For the first time, Prince Harry saw the girl in the series “Force Majeure,” where she played one of the main roles. The actress fell so deeply into the heart of the royal grandson that he asked their mutual friend Marcus Anderson arrange a meeting with Megan. The fateful meeting took place at a closed party. The prince insisted on a repeat meeting, which began this most discussed romance of the year.
The couple appeared together in public only in September 2017, and on the morning of November 27 of the same year, an official statement appeared on the Kensington Palace account about the engagement of the American actress and the grandson of the Queen of England.
(Photo: Globallookpress.com) One of the most talked about couples today is Prince Harry and his fiancée Meghan Markle. Society is watching with interest how the relationship of this couple is developing. Even despite the engagement, many do not believe in the seriousness of the loving young man’s intentions, because in recent years the tabloids have discussed a dozen of the prince’s affairs with different girls. There were even rumors that the heir prefers blondes - however, Meghan Markle was able to refute the rumors and win the heart of the handsome red-haired man. We decided to remember who else Prince Harry dated before the fatal beauty Megan - it turned out that among them was actress Emma Watson, models Cara Delevingne and Anastasia Guseva. Find out who else on this star list claimed the heart of the Prince of Great Britain in our article.
Natalie Pinkham
Prince Harry's scandalous relationship with television presenter Natalie Pinkham has been discussed for a long time. Candid photographs of a couple hugging and the fact that a twenty-year-old boy fell in love with a girl 6 years older than himself caused condemnation from society. Some time after the breakup, and even a relationship with another girl (Chelsea Davey), the young people tried to get back together, but the re-union was also short-lived.
Chelsea Davey
One of the main blondes in Prince Harry's life is, of course, Chelsy Davy. The daughter of a billionaire from Zimbabwe, according to the prince himself, was the first girl he really truly fell in love with. Everyone knew that this relationship meant a lot to the heir. They knew each other since childhood, got together and broke up several times. Chelsea announced her final decision to end the relationship, saying that she does not see herself as a member of the royal family. However, at the wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William, which took place a year after Prince Harry separated from Chelsea, he invited her to be an escort at the ceremony. “Out of old friendship” - this is how the heir explained the situation about his meeting at the festive dinner.
Natalie Imbruglia
Another partner with a large age difference is actress and singer Natalie Imbruglia, originally from Australia, already 10 years older than the prince! The novel became known after their joint visit to the concert of The Killers, which took place in London's Hyde Park. The paparazzi noticed the lovers there, constantly hugging and kissing. Despite the passionate relationship, the young people very quickly came to the conclusion that they were not suitable for each other.
Caroline Flack
The heir did not try to hide his affair with British TV presenter Caroline Flack from society - they flirted openly on social networks, and for several months regularly appeared in public, spending romantic evenings together, walking and dining in different restaurants. They broke up very quickly - the press wrote that the presenter, despite the peculiarities of her profession, still could not stand the increased attention, and the couple broke up.
Florence Brudenel-Bruce
When should you start a relationship with one of the most beautiful bikini models of our time? Of course, in the summer! This is exactly how Prince Harry spent the hot 2011 season. Many predicted their quick separation - and indeed, at the beginning of autumn, the young man left to serve in Afghanistan, and they separated.
Cressida Bonas
Cressida Bonas was predicted to have a future with Prince Harry, as she comes from a respected family - the girl is the granddaughter of Count Edward Curzon, the daughter of the director of the large company MacCulloch & Wallis, Geoffrey Bonas. The mother is also quite popular - Mary-Gail Curzon was a famous model in the 90s. They dated for almost 2 years, during which time rumors about their engagement surfaced several times, but in 2015 the couple finally broke up.
Pippa Middleton
A relationship with Kate Middleton's younger sister was considered a very good option for Prince Harry. Mutual interest appeared during the wedding of Prince William and Kate, but they began to communicate closer only in 2015. They say that Pippa herself was the initiator, but as they say, there was no spark between them, and after a couple of dates they decided to give up trying to be together. By the way, the girl’s fate was no less successful - not so long ago Pippa Middleton married James Matthews, a famous millionaire.
Emma Watson
After the long-legged models, Prince Harry appeared with a very unexpected passion - the petite and sophisticated actress Emma Watson. According to insiders, the heir sincerely fell in love and even showed a romantic mood, arranged secret dates and unexpected surprises. It was not reported anywhere that the young people broke up, but soon Prince Harry was noticed with another girl...
Cara Delevingne
In the case of the famous actress and model, there was no question of a serious relationship. There were rumors that Prince Harry and Cara actively communicate using social networks, and Cara’s friend Margot Robbie once publicly announced that Cara Delevingne shares “drunk texts” with the heir. Whether this is true or rumors is unknown, but many would be very surprised to see this couple together.
Juliet Labelle
In this case, many also discussed the big age difference - but this time young Juliet Labelle was 10 years younger than Prince Harry! The girl was happy with a prestigious job - she lived in the USA and held the position of assistant in the PR department of the local Dior representative office. They celebrated New Year 2016 together, the young man flew to America to see his beloved, but the romance, like many others, did not last longer than 2 months.
Princess Maria Olympia
Another seemingly excellent match for the heir to Great Britain is the Greek princess Maria Olympia. The couple spent another vacation together - they went to Switzerland, but after spending time together, communication did not continue. This novel received a lot of publicity, and the press even wrote that the British royal family was particularly interested in this possible candidate; they really liked the girl.
Elizabeth Marks
This girl is probably the most unexpected match for Prince Harry - twenty-five-year-old athlete Elizabeth Marks. The young people did not meet for long, but the girl was still very memorable - the champion of the international Paralympics Invictus Games, a famous swimmer, a sergeant in the US Army, who, moreover, boldly adorns her body with various tattoos.
And finally, the bride - Meghan Markle!
We also decided to remember how the prince’s relationship with his future wife, the bright and open Meghan Markle, began. It is known that the young man liked the girl even before they officially met - Prince Harry saw the actress in the series “Force Majeure”, after which he decided that he definitely had to see her in person. With the help of friends, he organized a meeting with Megan, where they immediately hit it off. And now - after two years of dating, they are preparing for the wedding, despite the fact that the future princess does not have a noble origin and was divorced - after a serious relationship for 7 years and 2 years of marriage. Let's wish them good luck! We, in turn, will be very interested to look at the future children of this bright couple, especially considering that Megan’s mother is African-American and her father is Irish!
Today, Kensington Palace interrupted the constantly updated chain of rumors with an official announcement - Prince of Wales Harry will marry the star of the TV series "Suits" Meghan Markle. This will make her the first American to join the British royal family since the marriage of King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson. 81 years ago, the monarch abdicated the throne for Wallis, since under previous laws he could not marry a divorced woman. Fortunately, this law was repealed in 2002, so nothing interferes with the upcoming wedding of Harry and Meghan. HELLO.RU decided to trace the history of the development of the relationship between the prince and the actress.

The first news about the romance between Britain's most eligible bachelor and an American actress appeared at the end of October 2016 on the pages of the British publication The Sunday Express. Since this was preceded by a dozen other similar, but “fake” news with other heroines, not everyone took this message seriously. However, soon, on November 8, there was official confirmation of the affair with Meghan Markle from the prince himself, and it was forced. Thus, the heir tried to stop the harassment of the paparazzi and the racist and sexist statements of Internet users against his beloved. There were many things that confused them about Meghan Markle: her humble origins, her status as a divorced woman (in 2011 she married producer Trevor Engelson after 7 years of relationship and divorced after 2 years), her age (she is three years older than Harry), and skin color (her mother is African-American, her father is Irish).
Last week the media crossed a line. His girlfriend Meghan Markle became the object of moral harassment. Many of these statements were published on the front pages of newspapers. All these notes and articles, social media, comments contained blatant sexism and racism.Some incidents were hidden from the public - nightly trials organized to remove libelous and defamatory stories from publications; the photographers her mother has to fight to get to the front door of her house; attempts by reporters and photographers to illegally enter her house and the calls to the police that followed; the bribes newspapers offered her ex-boyfriends; bombarding almost every friend and member of her family with calls, messages and letters, the statement said, the full text of which can be read.
Harry's request was ignored by the world's media, and the persecution of Megan not only did not stop, but flared up with renewed vigor. If almost everyone knows the heir to the British throne, then the name Meghan Markle until that day was known only to fans of the series “Suits”, in which she played the role of the main character Rachel Zane. Later, royal expert Katie Nihall said in the documentary When Harry Met Meghan: A Royal Romance that it was after watching this series that the prince was fascinated by the actress and dreamed of meeting her in real life. But as it became clear from Harry and Meghan's first joint television interview, he had not heard anything about her until their very first meeting.
I didn’t know anything about Meghan until our friend told me: “This is Meghan Markle.” Me: “Okay, is there anything else you can find out about her? A little background... What does she even do?” “So I hadn’t watched Suits before, I hadn’t heard anything about Meghan, and I was very pleasantly surprised when I walked into the room and saw her for the first time,” Harry said.
Before auditioning for the series and moving to Toronto for 7 years, Megan lived in Los Angeles with her parents. Unlike her newly-made sister-in-law Kate Middleton, whose parents, although they did not belong to the royal family, owned a million-dollar fortune, Meghan grew up in a simple, poor family and was forced to achieve everything on her own. Her father, Thomas, is a famous television director of photography, who worked on many popular shows and series, so Megan’s childhood was spent behind the scenes and largely determined her future choice of profession. Mom Doria is a yoga instructor who instilled in Megan a love for this teaching and a healthy lifestyle in general.

Megan got into the world of cinema by chance: her friend showed a school film with her participation to a casting director he knew, and he, in turn, offered her a role. For a long time, Megan played only episodic roles - for example, she played an airplane passenger trying to talk to Ashton Kutcher's character in the film More Than Love, or a FedEx courier in Horrible Bosses, or a bartender in the film Remember Me with Robert Pattinson. The work did not bring much income, the moment of glory did not come, and money was needed, so Megan had to look for other ways out. So, in between auditions and short filming, she worked part-time as a calligraphist and waitress in a restaurant.
My parents were very supportive of me at that moment. They worried about me at auditions, barely made ends meet, paid my bills. I worked part-time as a calligraphist and as a waitress - I did everything that other aspiring actors did. My father, more than anyone else, understood how difficult it is for an actor to find work, so he was truly happy when I was able to succeed,” Megan said in an interview with Vanity Fair.

In the same interview, Megan for the first time confirmed the story of her acquaintance with Prince Harry, which the media had declassified in advance thanks to information from insiders. The celebrities met in July 2016, when Megan was in London, on a blind date organized by a mutual friend. In a television interview, Harry and Meghan refused to name her, explaining that they wanted to protect her from media harassment. But according to insiders, this is designer Misha Nonoo, the wife of Prince Harry's school friend, a friend of his cousins, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, and a close friend of Megan.
For several months, Harry and Meghan managed to hide their romance from the public. The actress led her old life, wrote posts on her lifestyle blog The Tig, starred in the series and posted a selfie on Instagram in which she posed with a blue bracelet given to Harry. For the time being, the jewelry, which the prince himself had worn for a long time, remained above suspicion, but as soon as the first rumors about a celebrity romance appeared on the Internet, the bracelet was immediately given the status of evidence.
After the couple's television interview, it became known that the first date was followed by two more in London, after which Harry flew off on a long trip to Botswana, and Meghan flew to Toronto for filming. Three weeks later, Harry managed to persuade Meghan to join him on an African trip.
We lived together in the camp, enjoying the view of the starry sky for 5 days. It was an absolutely fantastic time. We could remain ourselves, which was very important to me. This was our chance to really get to know each other. Meeting her, a person who was not previously part of my social circle, was something new for me: I knew little about her, she knew little about me. So we were able to start from the very beginning and understood a lot after the first two dates. Then we went on our first vacation together, living in the same tent. Simply fantastic! It’s a great gift to know her as quickly as I did,” said Harry.
After Prince Harry himself confirmed the romance, real surveillance began on Meghan. True, the heir to the throne provided his beloved with such protection that it became not so easy to find out about her movements in advance. In November 2016, the paparazzi were able to find the actress only when she had already landed in London and went shopping at the grocery store closest to Kensington Palace.
Then the lovers faced a new separation: Megan had to return to Toronto to film episodes of “Suits,” and Harry had to fly off on a two-week tour to the Caribbean. While in Antigua, at a party at the house of the island's Prime Minister Gaston Browne, Harry suddenly found himself in an awkward position. In the presence of 300 guests, Gaston spoke to the prince about his girlfriend, thereby violating the agreements established in advance:
I understand that we will soon have a new princess. I want you to know that we gladly invite you to spend your honeymoon on our island.
At the end of the Caribbean tour in early December, Harry changed his mind about flying home straight away, at the last moment changing the route towards Toronto, where Meghan was waiting for him. At the end of December, before Christmas, Megan already made the flight - first the paparazzi photographed them at the moment when they were choosing a holiday tree, and then on their way to the Gielgud Theater for the play “The Mysterious Night-Time Murder of a Dog.”
The couple also celebrated the New Year together in London, and on January 2, 2017, they secretly went on their first romantic trip to Norway. There, according to eyewitnesses, they took part in a whale safari, excursions to lakes and fjords, and watched the northern lights.
That same month, Harry, according to The Sun, introduced his beloved to Prince William, Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte. And in March, the media finally got their first photos of the couple together, taken at the wedding of Prince Harry’s best friend in Jamaica.
Rumors that Prince Harry and Kate Middleton's sister Pippa had more than just a friendly relationship appeared in 2011. They were often spotted together in cafes and other establishments. And in 2015, when both Harry and Pippa ended their past relationships, Britain froze in anticipation of a sensational announcement. However, it did not come.
ON THE TOPIC
Some argue that external circumstances interfered. Others are sure that Prince Harry and Pippa Middleton were just friends. Be that as it may, William’s younger brother chose former actress and model Meghan Markle as his life partner, and he had to forget about close communication with other ladies.
Despite rumors that Meghan did not want her at her wedding, Pippa attended the ceremony. Netizens paid attention to her outfit. The light dress with a floral pattern reminded them of the colors of a popular Western brand of iced tea. Sarah Rogers, an employee of The Daily Beast, shared her discovery on Twitter.
With enough imagination, a similar shame can be attributed to other guests of the ceremony. In particular, actor George Clooney's wife Amal, who came to the wedding in a bright yellow dress, was compared to a can of pineapple juice. And a lime-flavored cocktail would be ideal to describe the color of Elizabeth II’s outfit, Internet users decided. Even the priest who performed the ceremony got it from online jokers.
Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy attended Prince Harry's wedding and was ridiculed for her funny expression. According to Twitter users, this is what a lady looks like when she realizes that she could be in the place of the bride. The frame managed to become a meme.
On Monday, November 27, the engagement of Prince Harry and his mulatto girlfriend Meghan Markle, known for her role as Rachel Zane in the TV series Suits, was officially announced. Their story is reminiscent of a classic English novel: there is platonic love before meeting, public condemnation, intrigue, and mysteries. And, of course, a fatal lady with a foggy past, who actually turned out to be a very virtuous person. “Lenta.ru” figured out who this Meghan Markle was and what she and Harry had to overcome on the way to their “happily ever after.”
John Fowles' famous novel The French Lieutenant's Woman has two equal and contradictory endings, and the novel by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has two similar beginnings. Some sources claim that they first met in 2016 in Toronto, where Meghan lived and worked, and Prince Harry was passing through there. He advertised in Canada his project “Games of the Invincibles” - an international competition for former and active military personnel who have become disabled. Others say that Harry allegedly asked their mutual friend Marcus Anderson to arrange a meeting for them when Meghan came to London in 2016 to watch Serena Williams play at Wimbledon.
However, this is not so important because, according to royal family expert Katie Nicholl, Prince Harry, as befits the hero of a classic novel, fell in love with Meghan long before they met. In the documentary When Harry Met Meghan: A Royal Romance, Katie says that the young man was crazy about the actress two years before meeting her. Allegedly, a friend asked Harry who his ideal girl was. And he, without hesitation, replied: “Meghan Markle from Suits.”
English Prince's Woman
Prince Harry's chosen one was born in Los Angeles on August 4, 1981 into a mixed family (her mother is African-American). In recent years she lived in Toronto, where she starred in one of the main roles - lawyer Rachel Zane - in the TV series Suits.
It’s unlikely that the girl herself knew about it, but her future husband is a very distant relative on her father’s side. One of Markle's ancestors turned out to be the high sheriff of County Durham, Ralph Bowes, who lived in the 15th century. Bose's granddaughter married and took the surname Hussey. Her grandson Christopher Hussey went to America and founded Nantucket. The prince's girlfriend is his direct paternal descendant. Bose's grandson remained in England and became a member of Parliament. His daughter married John Lyon, Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, in 1767. Five generations later, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon became the wife of King George VI. Her eldest daughter, Queen Elizabeth II, still rules Britain, and Prince Harry is her grandson.
In 2011, she married producer Trevor Engelson: before that, they had been dating for seven years. Two years later they divorced. The media occasionally reported on her affairs: either with a golfer or with a chef. However, by the time of her fateful meeting with Harry, she lived only with her dogs: Bogart and Guy.
Unlike Prince Harry, she did not know her betrothed in advance, but admitted that he definitely should not be a sarcastic gossip. According to her, she does not consider those who speak evil of others behind their backs to be men. Megan is quite old-fashioned, she admitted that she really loves paper letters: “If at the end of the day a guy writes a letter to a girl, even if it turns out like a doctor’s prescription, he takes the time to take a pen and paper rather than typing something , - it’s very romantic and beautiful.” Well, she must have liked the manners that reign in the London palaces.

When Harry met Meghan
Did the prince break royal traditions by having an affair with a mulatto actress?
Moreover, for the sake of them she will have to say goodbye to her relatively successful acting career. She starred not only in Suits, although this is her most famous role, but also on the big screen in the films Remember Me and Horrible Bosses. A couple of years ago, she could not have imagined such a turn of events: “I never wanted to be a “lady who goes to lunch.” I always wanted to be a woman who works." And yet, although the royal house has abandoned many conventions, a working actress is too much for the prim Windsors.
Like Princess Diana, dearly loved by the British, Megan is actively involved in charity work: she collaborates with UNICEF and the UN. In 2015, she gave such a fiery speech about gender equality on International Women's Day that UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon himself gave her a standing ovation. Meghan has been appointed as a global ambassador for World Vision Canada and has traveled to Rwanda and India on charity missions.
Obstacles on the path to happiness
Prince Harry, like a true gentleman, took care of privacy: journalists found out that the young people were dating only six months later. But for the sake of dating, they had to cross the Atlantic. On November 9, 2016, Harry officially announced his relationship with Meghan. This is how he responded to the barrage of critical publications addressed to his girlfriend. Particularly prim British people were outraged that Megan starred in sex scenes in the series. The Mirror even calculated that the revealing fragment, in which Megan's character is dressed only in black lace lingerie, was viewed more than 40 thousand times on one of the adult resources. Prince Harry asked the media and social network users to stop insulting the girl for her skin color and profession. After that, everyone realized that this was a serious matter.
Negative publications in the media almost stopped, but Megan began to receive anonymous threats. The brave girl, in an interview with British journalists, calmly stated that she was no stranger to threats: even while working on the series, she became an object of hatred from fans for a rather absurd reason: in the story, her heroine cheated on her lover. “I didn’t even know that there were so many symbols depicting pistols and knives,” the artist was surprised.
I also had to endure attacks from my sister Samantha. The mother-of-three, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2008, has been making angry comments to the British media. According to her, there is no point in envying the royal family, because Meghan is “empty, narcissistic and obsessed with success.” According to Samantha, her sister always dreamed of becoming a princess and preferred Prince Harry because she likes redheads. However, “Meghan is not behaving at all like a person of royal blood, so Prince Harry’s family will be dumbfounded,” she concluded.
Everything secret becomes clear
In the fall of 2017, Megan and Harry gave the British media many reasons for speculation about their engagement. October turned out to be especially rich in this, when the actress unexpectedly left the series “Force Majeure”. It is symbolic that in the last episode, her heroine Rachel finally married her old love - the main character Mike Ross. Photos of her in a wedding dress graced the covers of several British tabloids, eagerly awaiting Megan to try on a wedding dress in real life.
Frame: TV series “Suits”
The actress's stunt double and stylist, Nicky Bursic, said a very warm goodbye to her colleague in one of her posts, using the mysterious hashtag #youdeserveitall (“you deserve all this”). The tabloids immediately decided that they were talking about an imminent wedding with Prince Harry. Adding fuel to the fire was the fact that Niki deleted the scandalous hashtag after a flood of publications.
The final chord is Megan's move to the UK. Moreover, she did not arrive alone, but together with her beloved dogs Bogart and Guy, whom she had adopted from a shelter. Everything seems too obvious, and on November 24, bookmakers stopped accepting bets on all issues related to the prince's wedding.
On November 27, 2017, Kensington Palace released an official document. It said Prince Harry proposed to his girlfriend "earlier in November" after informing the royal family and receiving the blessing of Meghan's parents. The wedding will take place in the spring of 2018. Bookmakers are betting that the couple will marry in May, as Prince William and Kate Middleton's third child is due in April. Until the wedding, the couple will live at Kensington Palace. Most likely, Meghan will receive the title of Duchess of Sussex.
Apparently, Meghan, contrary to her sister’s predictions, has charmed the royal family. The Queen congratulated the newlyweds, noting that she was “delighted with the couple and wishes them happiness.” Prince Charles is happy that his son has found his true love. Prince William and his wife Kate also congratulated the bride and groom: “It was very nice to meet Megan and see how happy Harry is with her.” The palace even released a statement from Meghan's parents: "Our daughter has always been kind and loving, and we welcome her union with Harry, who shares the same qualities."
