Prince Harry to marry girlfriend Meghan Markle
BBC ^ | 27/11/2017 | Staff

Prince Harry is to marry his American actress girlfriend Meghan Markle.

Harry, fifth in line to the throne, will marry Ms Markle next spring and will live at Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace in London.

The couple, who have been dating since the summer of 2016, secretly got engaged earlier this month.

In a statement, Prince Charles said he was "delighted to announce" his son's news and that Harry had received the blessing of Ms Markle's parents.

Only the Queen and "other close members of his family" initially knew of the engagement, which took place in London.

I guess opposites do attract. I always liked Prince Harry. Not only did he serve in Afghanistan in a ground troop position, he later became an Apache helicopter pilot - and that is no easy feat.

But their world's will collide a bit. His mother was Diana. Meghan is a 36 year old divorced woman who was a soap actress and who has done sex scenes.

I found pictures of Meghan's mother, but not her father.

Got a bad feeling about this.

I just sense another Fergie and Andy scenario in the future.

She’s a Hollywood skank who has already been divorced one and she supported Hillary. That’s the trifecta of “nope.”

Many believe Harry’s father is not Charles,- so they have much in common.

Wall to wall coverage from this point forward. Media loves this stuff - even though they disparage the British Royal heritage as a pointless medieval holdover.

You have only to look at Harry in a flat cap to see that he is the image of Charles, with the same ears and nose.

The speculation has always surrounded Harry’s red hair, forgetting that his mother was a Spencer, famously red-heads, including Winston Spencer Churchill.

The DailyMail has had articles about their imminent engagement for awhile now. The mood of the comment section is mostly the Brits are not thrilled with the match, to put it lightly. Many are worried that she will push Harry more into liberal globalist causes and not abide by the fact the royal family are supposed to remain apolitical. They don’t want an American divorcee “commoner who takes her kit off on TV” actress in the royal family. Many of them are calling for a Republic after the queen passes on because without her the traditions and proper royal etiquette will not be upheld anyways. Markle is just the last straw for them it seems.

I had never heard of her until recently.

He’s a soldier, he likes the sort of girl soldiers like. He doesn’t take himself too seriously and as he is not in realistic line to the throne he can relax a bit. He’s not the Dalai Lama.

She’s a good looking girl, they have as much chance of making a go of it as any couple these days.

Although I take aboard the Andrew comparison, a sailor who fell for a hearty type.

I don’t think he was rude to her, a lot of nonsense is written in the media.

If that’s the mom, Meghan must have inherited her father’s good looks.

Isn’t she that rather average actress from that dumb lawyer show “Suits”?.

Can’t believe it’s still on the air.

Exactly. Also, he greatly resembles Princess Margaret, if you look at her pictures when she was young. He’s definitely a Windsor.

Why Barack Obama will be invited to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding - but Donald Trump may not be

This us all about Brexit. And Harry is a tool.
