Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s love story is one for the ages.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex first met in early 2016, although their romance wasn’t made public until that October.

While Prince Harry admitted that their relationship went from “0 to 60” over a relatively short period of time, he and Meghan feel that their romance only looked like a whirlwind from the outside.

“I don’t think that I would call it a whirlwind in terms of our relationship, obviously there have been layers attached to how public it has become after we had a good five, six months almost with just privacy, which was amazing,” Meghan said.
“I fell in love with Meghan so incredibly quickly — it was a confirmation to me that all the stars were aligned,” Harry added. “This beautiful woman literally tripped and fell into my life. I fell into her life and the fact that she will be unbelievably good at the job part of it as well is obviously a huge relief to me because she’ll be able to deal with everything else that comes with it.”

Of course, the job has changed: Prince Harry and Meghan have since become parents, stepped back as working royals and moved stateside. And despite their high-profile lives, the pair are doing their best to maintain a sense of normalcy — even if their date nights occasionally involve a crowd of 1,500.

Since stepping back from their royal duties, the couple’s relationship with Prince Harry’s family has been strained. Harry isn’t on speaking terms with Prince William and he spent very little time with King Charles at the coronation in May 2023.
