Prince Harry and Meghan Markle engaged: Recap as actress officially quits Suits and YouGov poll reveals nation's joy

Thanks for following our live updates on Harry and Meghan’s engagement.

Be sure to join us again on Friday when we’ll be updating you on the happy couple’s first royal engagement together.

That’s all for now!

Hotels are ‘cashing in’ on the Royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle by appearing to treble the cost of a single room during May- when the big day is planned to take place.

A specific date for the Royal wedding has not been announced yet, but the Palace confirmed the ceremony will be in May.

Prince Harry and the America actress will marry in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.

Hotels in Windsor, Berkshire, ‘jumped at the chance to capitalise on the potential flood of visitors’ from across the world who will descend on the Royal town, it is claimed.

Holiday Inn, Windsor, which is a 13-minute walk from the castle is charging £82 over April Sunday to Mondays stays for a single room.

But during May the chain is charging £259 for a standard single, a double room, a double room with a sofa bed and a two single-bed room - which only has three vacancies left.

A spokeswoman for Holiday Inn Express said: “Like the airline industry, hotel prices and room rates vary due to supply and demand.

“Factors such as hotel brand, location, size of the room, availability and whether it’s being sold as part of a package will determine the room rate.”

As Harry and Meghan’s relationship blossomed, the prince said he had to have honest conversations about how her life would change.

Harry said he had to have “some pretty frank conversations” with Meghan about how her life may change when she entered the royal family.

He added: “But I know that at the end of the day she chooses me, and I choose her, and therefore whatever we have to tackle together or individually we’ll always be us together as a team, so I think she’s capable... she’s capable of anything.”

The royal bride-to-be intends to become a UK citizen ahead of the ceremony at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle in May.

Though she will retain her US citizenship, Miss Markle ‘will be compliant will all immigration laws’ in the UK.

For the average person that would mean applying to take the Life in the UK test and then waiting up to four weeks to receive a confirmation letter.

But when quizzed on ‘Britishisms’ last year by TV Channel Dave, she only managed to get a measly four out of 15 questions about Britain right.

The quiz started with her having to guess which answer is a genuine ale. She nailed it with three out of five correct, but most of the remaining questions left her well and truly baffled.

Meghan was asked which four places were real locations in the UK - she chose the only one that isn’t a real place.

She also didn’t know the UK word for ‘sidewalk’ and said Vegemite was more popular than Marmite.

Following the test, she admitted defeat, saying: “I think I lost. I think I was the worst at this game.”

Meghan Markle’s mum appears to have a brand new security detail now that her daughter is joining the royal family.

Doria Ragland was spotted being driven to a thrift centre in Santa Monica by a security guard after news of Meghan’s engagement to Prince Harry broke around the world.

Glamorous Doria, a yoga instructor, was wearing a black long-sleeved dress and a head scarf for her day out, during which she was flanked by a burly security guard dressed in jeans and a checked shirt.

Security was seen outside the 61-year-old’s Los Angeles home while US actress Meghan, who quit legal drama Suits after her engagement was announced, gave an interview alongside her new fiance.

A body language expert has predicted Harry and Meghan may have a baby ‘sooner than expected’.

In their first interview after their engagement was announced, they were asked by BBC presenter Mishal Husain whether they had thought about having children.

“Not currently, no,” Harry said. “No, of course, you know I think one step at a time.

“Hopefully we will start a family in the near future.”

But renowned body language expert Traci Brown believes that after the wedding the couple will immediately start trying for a baby.

Speaking to the Daily Star, she said: “They are 100% on the fast-track for kids.

“Their comments match their body language – there’s no hesitation and they’re on the same page.

“Start the clock now.”

The charity World Vision has paid tribute to Prince Harry’s bride-to-be Meghan Markle, saying the “true humanitarian” will bring “vast energy” to her royal work.

The former Suits star is giving up her current charitable commitments with the organisation to focus on her new life as a member of the royal family with a “clean slate”.

World Vision’s Lara Dewar, who travelled to India with Ms Markle earlier this year, thanked the actress for her support and praised her passion for improving children’s lives and campaigning for girls’ rights.

“Meghan is a true humanitarian,” the chief marketing and development officer said.

“We’re deeply grateful for her contribution as a global ambassador for World Vision over the past two years and for helping to raise awareness for the world’s most vulnerable children.

“I personally witnessed Meghan’s passion to improve the lives of children, and know her heart to advocate for the rights of girls - to hear and amplify their important voices.

“She will undoubtedly bring vast energy to her charity work as a member of the royal family.

“We can’t wait to see what the future holds for her and Prince Harry - a couple who clearly have a heart for social justice.”

The Sunday Mirror uncovered an article from her college news magazine in which Meghan joked she put on a stone after bingeing on Burger King in her Freshman year.

Interviewed by the magazine in 2014, after returning to the Northwestern campus for a Q&A session alongside fellow cast members of TV show Suits, she said: “It’s surreal because I haven’t been back since I graduated.

“And as I’m walking around I remember things like the schlep of getting to South Campus from up north.

“The 24-hour Burger King also ­definitely helped me put on the Freshman Fifteen.”

Meghan graduated from the Northwestern University School of Communications in 2003 with a double major in theatre and international relations.

While the 36-year-old may seem like the ideal princess-in-waiting, we can reveal she had a ‘wild youth’ just like 32-year-old Harry.

Meghan’s days at Northwestern University in Chicago in the early 2000s have rarely been spoken about.

But a visit to her old stomping ground by the Sunday Mirror has revealed she was a typical party-loving student who allegedly used fake ID to go clubbing.

One of her favourite haunts is said to have been a bar that has since been shut down following a battle with authorities over underage drinking.

Long before she was the fiancée of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle was just one of many young women at Northwestern University in Chicago - as this sorority picture proves.

The sweet image, which shows the then-scholar with female peers in 2003, sees the brunette beauty vying for the camera’s attention.

Not dissimilar to the perfectly-preened image which accompanied her recent marriage announcement, the bride-to-be has a cheeky glint in her eye.

The Duchess of Cambridge is continuing with her royal duties amid the excitement of her brother-in-law’s engagement.

Kate Middleton dons a chic winter outfit as she visits schoolchildren to celebrate a decade of Royal Horticultural Society Campaign’s for school gardening.

Dressed in winter boots, black jeans and a dark jacket, she has been pictured holding a bunch of flowers as she meets kids at Robin Hood Primary School, Kingston, London.

The RHS Campaign for School Gardening inspires and supports schools to provide children with gardening opportunities to enhance their skills and boost their development.

Meghan’s half brother Thomas Markle Jr has reportedly said he hopes to receive an invite to the wedding despite an accusation he threatened his own girlfriend with a gun.

The 51-year-old allegedly waved a handgun at Darlene Blount, 36, in an argument, The Times reports.

Reports say he was arrested in January but the charges were dropped the next month and the couple got engaged.

He apparently apologised and said: “Everyone makes mistakes.”

“If I may say so, Prince Harry has made a few and learnt from them,” he told the Sun.

“I still want to go to the wedding if they will let me.”

Porn website Pornhub claims searches containing the words ‘Meghan Markle’ have rocketed since news of the royal engagement broke.

Analysis carried out by the site shows worldwide searches shot up 2,208% on Monday.

In a blog post, Pornhub claimed their users tend to search for famous figures when celebrities hit the news - Meghan’s name also saw an uptick of 1,430% in November 2016 when it was revealed she and Harry were dating.

Barack and Michelle Obama have congratulated the happy couple and wished them all the best for their life together.

Barack tweeted: “Michelle and I are delighted to congratulate Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on their engagement.

“We wish you a lifetime of joy and happiness together.”

The tweet was retweeted by Michelle.

British firm Emma Bridgewater has revealed details of a commemorative mug celebrating the loved-up couple’s engagement.

Within minutes of the impending nuptials being announced, the brand began making the handmade china in its Stoke-on-Trent factory to mark the occasion.

Priced at £19.95, the mug features a classic spongeware design applied by hand, with the words “Harry & Meghan are engaged” in pale blue surrounded by two red scrolls.

The other side of the piece displays the engagement announcement date “27th November 2017”.

The mug is edged in small pale blue hearts and tiny red dots.

Designer Emma Bridgewater told the Nottingham Post: “We are proud to be part of that tradition and celebrate the most recent happy news.”

The half-pint mug is available for pre-order at emmabridgewater.co.uk from December 8.

A YouGov poll has revealed Brits’ view of Meghan Markle, as well as showing how people feel about the engagement.

The YouGov poll for The Times today found 39% of British people were pleased by Harry and Meghan’s engagement, 4% disappointed, and 52% indifferent.

The same poll said 49% have a positive view of Meghan, 14% negative, and 37% ‘don’t know’, it has been reported.

Members of Meghan’s family have said they will come over to England for the wedding even if they’re not invited, it has been reported.

Meghan’s niece TJ Dooley, 26, from Grants Pass, Oregon, told The Sun: “I’d probably come to the UK for the wedding -

even if I’m not invited.

“I am thrilled.”

Her mum also expressed her delight, saying Meghan would make Harry “a happy man”.

The majority of over 65s have said there shouldn’t be a bank holiday in Britain to celebrate the marriage of Harry and Meghan, according to a YouGov poll.

Of the over 65s surveyed, just 24% wanted a bank holiday, whereas 64% said there shouldn’t be a day off.

Yougov tweeted: “Older Brits rain on everyone else’s parade by saying there shouldn’t be a bank holiday for the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.”

Meghan has previously given an idea of what her ideal wedding gown would be like.

In an interview before she was revealed to be Prince Harry’s girlfriend, she described her dream dress as something ‘classic and simple’.

She added that the dress worn by her Suits character Rachel wasn’t quite her style and said she’d like something more ‘relaxed’, the Daily Mail reports.

With this in mind, her wedding dress is likely to be quite a different style to Kate Middleton’s Alexander McQueen frock she wore to tie the knot with William in 2011.

Bets have been flooding in on who will be the lucky designer of Meghan’s dress, and it’s Erdem that’s leading the way at just 2/1.

The odds, as provided by Ladbrokes, are below:

• Erdem - 2/1
  
• Jenny Packham - 4/1
  
• Giles Deacon - 5/1
  
• Suzanne Neville - 11/2
  
• Elie Saab - 6/1
  
• Oscar de Le Renta - 7/1
  
• Vera Wang - 8/1
  
• Amanda Wakely - 10/1
  
• Alice Temperley - 10/1
  
• Marchesa - 10/1
  
• Alexander McQueen/Sarah Burton - 10/1
  
• Beulah - 12/1
  
• David Emmanuel - 12/1
  
• Monique Lhuillier - 14/1
  
• Victoria Beckham - 16/1

Harry has forged links with Nottingham through the work of the Full Effect programme which seeks to combat youth violence, and the prince has visited several times to see its work in action.
The programme is led by Harry, and was set up by the Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry - the foundation which Ms Markle is also to become a patron of.
At the inaugural summit of Barack Obama’s foundation in Chicago earlier this month, Harry was joined by Chantelle Stefanovic, a project coordinator at the programme, and she was praised by Harry for the effect she has had on the people in her community.

People have been getting excited about Harry and Meghan’s visit to Nottingham on Friday.

One twitter user wrote: “Yay, he can’t stay away from Nottingham. Good taste Harry.”

Another wrote: “I can’t wait to see Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Nottingham this Friday! Even if I’m stood outside for hours, I’m determined to see them in the flesh.”

Ian Green, CEO of Terrence Higgins Trust, added: “I am very much looking forward to welcoming Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to a World AIDS Day fair in Nottingham organised by @THTorguk - delighted that this will be their first formal engagement together.”

Harry and Meghan will go to Nottingham on Friday, which will be the first time they’re seen in public together since the engagement announcement.

The pair are scheduled to visit two locations on Friday - the Nottingham Contemporary art gallery and the Nottingham Academy.

They are also expected to do a ‘walkabout’.

There is a small square outside the entrance to Nottingham Contemporary art gallery where it may be possible to spot the Prince and Ms Markle.

The neighbouring Pitcher and Piano bar even has a balcony which overlooks the art gallery.

You could also possibly catch a glimpse of the pair driving through the gates of Nottingham Academy.

Buckingham Palace announced yesterday that Meghan Markle will become a British citizen after her wedding next year.

Although some foreign politicians are required to give up their dual citizenship, there are no similar rules for British royals.

In fact, there’s already been speculation that Harry and Meghan’s children could even have American passports.

But there’s a one big problem, according to the Washington Post - American tax laws.

“US citizens are subject to US tax obligations regardless of their country of residence,” Peter Spiro, a Temple University law professor and the author of “At Home in Two Countries: The Past and Future of Dual Citizenship” told the WaPo.

“A member of the royal family would be treated just like anyone else.”

By contrast, if Harry were to move to the US to live with Meghan, he would not be expected to file taxes in the UK.

Meghan insists that she doesn’t see her union with Prince Harry as “giving anything up”.

“I just see it as a change,” she continued - but others might disagree.

The actress, who will wed the Queen’s grandson at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle in May, was referring to her role as Rachel Zane on legal drama Suits.

On Tuesday, the show finally confirmed she had departed the series.

In addition to her acting job, Meghan has also had to leave behind one of her beloved dogs, Bogart, who is believed to be too old to fly to the UK.

The 36-year-old has also given up her current charitable commitments.

Yesterday it was revealed that Meghan will be both baptised and confirmed ahead of her Church of England wedding.

The bride-to-be is Christian, a member of the Protestant faith who went to a Catholic high school.

Her mother Doria Ragland is Protestant while her father Thomas Markle is Episcopalian.

A person wishing to marry in a church is not required to be christened or confirmed but will usually have a link to that church in some way.

In the case of St George’s Chapel, this is where Harry was christened.

The decision for Meghan, 36, to be baptised and confirmed before the wedding will be seen as a nod to the Queen’s strong faith and traditions within the monarchy.

Both baptism and confirmation are important parts of the “journey of faith”, according to the church’s website.

While many people brought up in the faith are baptised as children, adults can undergo the religious ceremony too.

“You are never too old to take this step, and being baptised as an adult is a wonderful experience,” the church’s website states.

During the ceremony water is usually either poured on the person’s head at the font or they may be fully immersed in a special pool within the church.

The service of confirmation can only take place if a person has been baptised, and is about confirming the promises about their faith that were made at the baptism.

Meghan could be baptised and confirmed in the same ceremony.

The production companies behind Suits have officially announced that Meghan Markle has wrapped up her role on the legal drama.

A day after the actress revealed she was leaving her acting career behind to start a new life with Prince Harry following their engagement news, USA Network and Universal Cable Productions put out a statement confirming her departure.

Meghan, 36, played Rachel Zane on the cable network drama, rising up the ranks from paralegal to lawyer. The character is engaged to be married to Mike Ross, played by Patrick J. Adams.

While the proposal took Meghan, 36, completely by surprise, her childhood friend Ninaki Priddy claims she is “not shocked at all” by the news.

She told the Daily Mail: “It’s like she has been planning this all her life... she was always fascinated by the Royal Family.

“She wants to be Princess Diana 2.0.”

The American actress has more in common with Harry’s beloved late mum Princess Diana than we realised.

From wardrobe to handwriting, we take a look at the actress’ striking similarities to the people’s princess.

Earlier it was revealed that Meghan has had to leave one of her beloved dogs behind in Canada.

The former Suits actress has been forced to say farewell to Bogart - a Labrador-shepherd mix - who has been permanently re-homed with close friends.

It was initially thought that Bogart would also be joining her, but it has since been reported that the rescue dog is too old to fly to her new home in London.

Stella McCartney suggested she was ready to offer Meghan advice on how to ensure her wedding dress is environmentally friendly.

Appearing on BBC2’s Newsnight to discuss schemes for recycling clothing, the fashion designer was asked whether the royal bride should rent her dress, so it could be reused by other women.

Stella replied: “I’m happy to provide some eco-options.”

The identity of the mysterious matchmaker behind Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s engagement has apparently been revealed.

One of the couple’s closest friends, Violet von Westenholz is understood to have arranged the blind date that changed the course of royal history.

Miss von Westenholz, aged 33, a PR director for fashion label Ralph Lauren, has known Harry since they were both teenagers, the Daily Telegraph reports.

She reportedly declined to deny that she had been responsible for setting up the blind date, telling the paper: “I might leave that for other people to say (who it is).

“It’s a great story and I am sure they are going to be very happy together. I am just happy they are really happy. They are great together.”

Smiling for the camera, a teenage Meghan Markle poses in front of Buckingham Palace - unaware that two decades later she would bag her very own prince.

This incredible photograph, obtained by the Daily Mail, emerged a day after the American actress and Prince Harry confirmed their engagement.

Taken during a visit to Europe in 1996, a 15-year-old Meghan and a pal were snapped outside the Palace in central London.

In a real-life fairytale, she walked through the same gates 21 years later as the fiancée of the Queen’s grandson.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly searching for a second home in the countryside – and it could be a manor once used to film Pride and Prejudice.

They are claimed to be looking at a £7.7million eight-bedroom property in the Cotswolds village of Luckington, Wiltshire, near where he and Prince William grew up.

Luckington Court could also be a contender given its proximity to Highgrove, where Prince Charles lives.

The manor is a Grade II-listed home used in the 1995 TV series starring Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle .

Theresa May still refused to confirm whether Brits will get an extra Bank Holiday to celebrate Harry and Meghan’s nuptials tonight.

She was questioned as she travelled on the RAF Voyager aircraft while making her way to the Middle East for a whistlestop tour.

When pressed on whether Britons will receive a day off work to cheer the country up, she said: “You talk about cheering people up, I think seeing two young people in love, and actually that was obvious from - I didn’t see all of the BBC interview, I saw some snatches of it - and I think that was obvious.

When Kate Middleton and Prince Williiam tied the knot in the stunning Westminster Abbey in London on Friday April 29 2011, the British public was given a bonus bank holiday.

Princess Anne’s wedding gave the British public a Bank Holiday in 1973.

Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle have given a lot of thought about what it means to be a young modern royal couple, the Prime Minister has said.

Theresa May said: “I think what was obvious was that they have given a lot of thought of what it means to be a modern royal couple in today’s age.

“I wish them great happiness for the future. And I think the country is delighted to see this engagement and collectively we wish them all the very best.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have chosen the month of May for their wedding, but one royal ancestor would not have approved.

Harry’s great-great-great-great grandmother Queen Victoria refused to allow her children to marry in May because she considered it unlucky.

The superstitious rhyme “Marry in May, and rue the day” may have put Victorian brides off, with 19th century priests often dealing with a rush of people who wanted to marry on April 30 to avoid it.

Successful royals weddings in May include the Queen’s eldest grandson Peter Phillips and his Canadian bride Autumn Kelly who wed in Harry and Ms Markle’s chosen venue, St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle on May 17 2008.

The couple, who have two daughters, celebrate their 10 year anniversary next May.

But the Queen’s sister Princess Margaret married Antony Armstrong Jones, later the Earl of Snowdon, on May 6 1960 and that marriage ended in divorce.

May has two bank holidays, Monday May 7 and Monday May 28 this year. Schools also break for half term over the second bank holiday, known as the Spring Bank Holiday. Princess Charlotte of Cambridge’s third birthday is on May 2, which makes this date unlikely. The first week of May might also be unsuitable for the Duchess of Cambridge if she goes overdue with the birth of her third child, plus local government elections are taking place on May 3. It could be that the royal wedding takes place in late May to give Kate the chance to recover after the arrival of the new prince or princess. Royal weddings traditionally take place on a weekday. Queen Victoria herself married in February on a rainy day with high winds.

The Duchess of Cornwall visited children and staff at Stoke City FC today as Meghan and Harry’s wedding plans were announced.

While palace officials scurry around making up guest lists, frantically ringing caterers and sourcing the cake, Meghan and Harry will be quietly thanking the woman who made it all possible.

Meghan’s friend, who she coyly referred to in their first joint couple’s interview last night, was the one who set her and Harry up on a blind date, thinking they’d get on well.

And despite Meghan and Harry wanting to protect her privacy, the woman’s identity has been revealed.

Tucked away in the grounds of Kensington Palace, this is the royal love nest where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will live.

The newly-engaged couple will set up home in the prince’s current apartment, Nottingham Cottage, a two-bedroom property on the 17th century estate.

While it is the smallest abode on the estate, it boasts reception rooms designed by Sir Christopher Wren and a small garden, where Harry slung up a hammock when he first moved into the property.

Meghan, 36, is no stranger to the cosy cottage and has visited Harry, 33, a number of occasions since the pair started dating.

And it’s likely she will want to put her own stamp on the place, like the Duchess of Cambridge did when she first moved in.

Harry made the cottage his bachelor pad in 2013 after Kate and William moved into the 20-room Apartment 1A inside the palace.

Great British Bake Off star Selasi Gbormittah has hinted that his dream is to bake the wedding cake for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle following the news of their engagement.

The baker - a fan favourite in last year’s competition - joked that he had daydreamed about the couple considering him for the honour in a light-hearted Twitter post.

Sharing a photo of the prince and Ms Markle as they announced their happy news on Monday, he wrote: “Meghan: Can Selasi make our cake Harry? Harry: haha, now that’d be splendid!

If only he has time and doesn’t mind! Friend: Selasi wake up...Daydreaming RoyalWedding.”

His comments come as he makes a return to the Bake Off tent with former hopeful Val Stones, this time judging the skills of series host Paul Hollywood in his new show Paul Hollywood: A Baker’s Life.

It was claimed earlier that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could be looking to settle in the village of Luckington in the Cotswolds, near his childhood home.

It was believed £7.7million stately manor Luckington Court was taken off the market yesterday - just as news broke of Harry and Meghan’s engagement.

But it has now emerged it is still on the market according to estate agency Woolley and Wallace, based in Marlborough, Wiltshire.

In this never before seen footage, an 11-year-old Meghan is seen happily playing with her baby nephew Thomas Dooley as her dad Tom Markle looks on.

The close-knit family look happy and relaxed in the cute video shot at ‘grandpa Tom’s’ Los Angeles home back in 1992.

Wearing her long hair in bunches, Meghan shakes her head at the bouncing toddler who giggles in delight.

The candid home video gives an insight into Meghan’s humble beginnings, before she grew up to become a famous actress and ultimately catch the eye of Prince Harry.

Meghan Markle is to take time out before her high-profile royal wedding to go travelling to see family and friends.

Palace aides revealed the American star is planning to head off abroad and that she is still waiting for her belongings to be shipped over from the US.

It is thought Ms Markle might go to her former home Canada - or to see her father Thomas Markle, who lives a quiet life in Mexico, and could even take fiance Prince Harry with her.

The prince has yet to meet his future father-in-law face to face. “Her belongings are currently in the process of being shipped to London, and to Kensington Palace,”

Harry’s communications secretary Jason Knauf said. “She’ll be doing some travelling over the next couple of months, to see family and friends now that she’s finished working, before she permanently settles at Kensington Palace.”

Kensington Palace declined to say where Ms Markle, who has finished her role in the US legal drama Suits, would be going on holiday.

Meghan Markle’s mum Doria Radlan was pictured visiting a friend in Los Angeles, California, for the first time since her daughter and Prince Harry’s engagement announcement.

She was accompanied by a security guard, who followed her in a car behind during the visit in Marina Del Rey.

Just 24 hours after Prince Harry revealed he was off the market good by announcing his engagement to Suits actress Meghan Markle , his former girlfriend Cressida Bonas uploaded an inspirational post to social media.

Theatre star Cressida enjoyed a two year romance with the Prince, and even accompanied him to official engagements, before they split in 2014

On Tuesday evening Cressida, 28, posted an uplifting message to her Instagram page.

“No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you are, how you treat people ultimately tells it all,” read the post, which was accompanied by an image of a boy and girl reaching out to each other on swings.

Prince Harry has been pictured hitting the gym just moments after announcing his and Meghan Markle’s wedding plans.

The couple’s wedding is six months away, but the royal was clearly keen to start his fitness regime early.

The 33-year-old was seen leaving his gym in Chelsea, south west London tonight, alongside his royal protection officer.

While Meghan was nowhere to be seen, Harry was pictured wearing a grey sweat shirt and jogging bottoms, with a blue beanie hat.

Meghan Markle struggled with her career early on and both her parents have also had financial problems.

Meghan’s mum, Doria, reportedly filed for bankruptcy in 2002, while her dad Thomas is said to have filed for bankruptcy last year, amid debts of £24,000.

As a mixed-race actress, Meghan said roles weren’t always easy for her to find.

She explained: “Being ethnically ambiguous, as I was pegged in the industry, meant I could audition for virtually any role.

Prince Harry is officially off the market, following years of living the bachelor lifestyle.

The fifth-in-line to the throne announced he and his Suits actress girlfriend Meghan Markle are engaged.

And it’s fair to say hearts broke across the world as women lost all hope of becoming a princess.

From a Love Island star to a Burberry model to a Strictly Come Dancing hopeful, there are many women who came close to winning Prince Harry’s heart across the years.

And it seems he definitely had a type prior to Meghan...

Meghan Markle may have to take a second stab at the UK Citizenship Test before she marries Prince Harry - but could you answer the questions?

It has been revealed this afternoon that the royal bride-to-be intends to become a UK citizen ahead of the ceremony at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle in May.

Though she will retain her US citizenship, Miss Markle ‘will be compliant will all immigration laws’ in the UK.

For the average person that would mean applying to take the Life in the UK test and then waiting up to four weeks to receive a confirmation letter.

The official Government website advises: “A decision about your application will usually be made within 6 months - some applications can take longer.”

Perhaps some applications can be expedited too.
