ROYAL ENGAGEMENT :Prince Harry to propose to actress Meghan Markle?
Harry met actress Meghan Markle a few months ago. On Sunday and Monday, we heard from sources that Meghan and Harry were still in the “early days” of their relationship, but they were and are very smitten… despite the fact that no one really knows if she’s officially divorced, and despite the fact that she’s a gauche American. Yesterday, sources told the Daily Mail that Harry pursued Meghan aggressively, that she already had a boyfriend and Harry just “besieged her with texts until she agreed to a date.” Now this bombshell from People Magazine: Meghan has already met the Prince of Wales. And an engagement is “certainly a possibility.”
Prince Harry is so serious with actress Meghan Markle that an engagement could be in the not-so-distant future, insiders suggest.
“That is certainly a possibility,” one friend tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue. “It is certainly one possible outcome. It’s pretty serious, so we will see.”
The prince, 32, and the Suits star, 35, have been dating seriously for about two months, another source confirms. Things are moving so quickly, in fact, that Harry has already introduced Markle to his father (and the future king of England), Prince Charles, PEOPLE has learned.
“Harry is pretty serious about her and she is pretty serious about him,” says the pal. Adds a close friend: “It’s great. They have a lot in common and I’m sure they will get on very well.”
Markle, a Northwestern University grad and the founder of the “inspired lifestyle” site The Tig, has intriguingly posted as series of Instagram clues in recent months—including a cheeky photo on Tuesday of two cuddling bananas.
“Harry is quite romantic,” says royals author Ingrid Seward. “He is the sort of man who will send flowers. He really does wear his heart on his sleeve.”
The prince’s office at Kensington Palace says they don’t comment on “private matters,” while representatives for Markle have not responded to requests for comment. Says Harry’s close friend: “People need to let them go their own way and see what happens.”

The fact that some source is actually invoking the possibility of a royal engagement is… startling. How long has this been happening? Why is this relationship being rolled out this hard this week? Is Harry actually thinking that Meghan is The One? I have no idea. But the very fact that we’re speaking about this relationship in these kinds of terms totally blows up every notion I had about Harry’s future bride. I thought she would have to be British, or failing that, from a British Commonwealth nation. I thought she would be blonde and if not posh, at least well-educated and well-connected. I thought he would never be “allowed” to get serious about an actress. My mind is blown.
