Fifth in line to the throne Harry, 33, has been dating the 36-year-old star, who found fame in the US drama 'Suits', since the summer of 2016. The couple's 16-month whirlwind romance blossomed when they met through mutual friends in London and the pair have been almost inseparable in recent months, with Markle said to have virtually moved in to Harry's home at Kensington Palace.

I'm sure there will be a time when we will have to come forward and present ourselves and have stories to tell, but I hope what people will understand is that this is our time. This is for us." The wedding will be Markle's second. She was previously married to movie producer Trevor Engelson. (ANI)
