After dating for more than one year, Prince Harry and Suits star Meghan Markle finally revealed their engagement news on 28 November 2017. In their engagement interview, they revealed a lot about their love story. They even revealed the fact that they were set up in a blind date. Soon they find themselves perfect for each other. Meghan said she flew to Botswana to spend time with Harry. Harry visited this place during his childhood. So this place is emotionally connected to him.

After that they spent some time on photo shoot. Meghan showed off her engagement ring with pride. This special ring was designed by Prince Harry. It was made by Cleave and Company. The diamonds of the ring bring special significance to it. The ring features a trio of diamonds.
The center stone
The bigger stone at the middle is from Botswana. The couple had spent some quality time in this country. As this place is connected to Prince Harry’s childhood, it has some emotional value. Meghan showed off her ring during the photo call at Kensington Palace.
The other two stones
The central diamond is flanked by two diamonds. These two diamonds belong to Princess Diana’s collection. Princess Diana died on 31 August 1997. After her death, the Royal family inherited all of her jewelries. In 2010, Prince William and Catherine Middleton officially announced their engagement. Prince William gave his mother’s ring to Catherine Middleton. Now Prince Harry gives Meghan the ring that is related to his mother. So, it has become a tradition for the British family. Both of the Royal brides get something precious that is related to their mother-in-law.
After the confirmation of their engagement, Prince Harry and Meghan appeared as an engaged couple at Kensington Palace. Meghan showed off her ring with pride. The prince surely put a lot of effort in making Meghan happy and overwhelmed.
The prince already broke laws for Meghan. The Royal family broke their “no ring, no bring” rule for Ms. Meghan. She spent Christmas with The Royal family.
Another important fact is that this is the first marriage for Harry but not for Meghan. She was married to Trevor Engelson from 2011 to 2013. Her first marriage is not an issue for her second marriage. The Royal family and their rules have changed with time. William Hanson, a leading royal etiquette expert in the UK, tells that he suspects that Prince Harry and Meghan will be the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
