Prince Harry could propose to Meghan Markle 'within months'

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are famously tight-lipped about their relationship, but if sources are right we could be seeing a royal engagement in a matter of months.

Friends of Prince Harry’s told the Mail on Sunday the 32-year-old was planning to propose to the Suits star, 35, before his birthday in September.

“Harry has found the girl he wants to spend the rest of his life with,” one insider said. 

"He is fuelling all the talk about the future.”

Friends claim the US actress now keeps a shelf of organic cookbooks in the prince’s quarters in Kensington Palace and is so familiar to staff in the grounds that she doesn’t need a security pass.

If the pair were to get married, it would be the first wedding for the UK's Royal Family since Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot in 2011.

However, there would likely be one notable absentee from the guest list: Prince Harry's grandmother. 9Honey previously reported that as the technical head to the Church of England, the Queen cannot 'endorse' a marriage to a divorcee. Markle was previously married to producer Trevor Engelson, from whom she divorced in 2013.
