Prince Harry and his future wife Meghan Markle made a brief appearance before photographers on the grounds of Kensington Palace hours after their engagement was announced. Harry, wearing a blue suit and tie, said he was "thrilled" and said details about his proposal will come out later, reports the AP. He was then asked if the proposal was romantic, and he replied: "Of course!"
Markle, who said she was "so happy," was wearing an engagement ring for the first time in public. The Guardian quotes ITV's royal editor as saying the 3-diamond ring contains two stones from Diana's collection and one from Botswana, where the two vacationed together. Markle held Harry's hand and rubbed his arm, and they left with their arms around each other. The couple plan to give their first interview later in the day.
