Prince Harry, fifth in line to the British throne, is engaged to American actress Meghan Markle, the Prince of Wales announced Monday. “The wedding will take place in Spring 2018. Further details about the wedding day will be announced in due course,” Clarence House, the official account of Prince Charles, said in a statement posted to Twitter. Divorcee Markle, who at 36 is three years older than her royal fiance, only appeared in public with Prince Harry at an official event in September, but rumors of their engagement have been building in recent weeks. The couple got engaged in London earlier this month, according to the royal statement. The biracial American will be known as Princess Harry of Wales, unless the Queen follows recent practice and awards her grandson a new dukedom, in which case she would become a duchess.
