While we don’t know the exact date Harry asked Meghan to officially be his lady, in November of last year Kensington Palace released a statement, quickly sending the world into a spin and confirming the relationship – even going as far as to say that the pair had been dating for a few months. 

Whirlwind trips back and forth from London and Toronto ensued, with Markle quickly becoming a household name, and the most googled actress of 2016.

Harry took Meghan as his date to both his friend’s wedding in Jamaica and to his sister-in-law Pippa Middleton’s wedding to James Matthews, and the pair made their public debut as a couple at a polo match in May, though they still haven’t been officially photographed together.
