Prince Harry and Meghan Markle speak about relationship and engagement

Just four weeks after a blind date with U.S. actress Meghan Markle that left him beautifully surprised, Britain's Prince Harry took his wife to be on a trip to Botswana to camp under the stars in his tent, he said in a BBC interview on Monday (November 27).

Harry, 33, Queen Elizabeth's grandson and fifth-in-line to the British throne, and Markle, 36, best known for her role in the U.S. TV legal drama "Suits", got engaged this month in London, announcing the news on Monday.

Harry and Markle, who is a divorcee, met in July 2016 after they were introduced through a friend who set them up on a blind date. But it was not until September that they made their first public appearance together at the Invictus Games in Toronto, a sports event for wounded veterans.

They are due to marry in the spring of next year.

The prince, the younger son of heir-to-the-throne Prince Charles and his first wife Diana, publicly confirmed their relationship months later in a rebuke to the media over its alleged intrusion into Markle's private life.

Markle said she was not prepared for the huge attention their relationship would have.
