Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle recently released engagement photos on social media to the delight of fans and well-wishers worldwide.

The engagement pictures showed the couple on the grounds of the Frogmore House, which is a royal retreat home around a mile away from the Windsor Castle in the UK. The first photo showed them sitting on the steps of the prestigious getaway. The ring could be clearly seen. It features a center stone from Botswana and a diamond from the late Princess Diana's jewelry collection.

The second photo, which came out in black and white, showed them in a loving embrace as they smiled affectionately at each other. The third picture was a candid one of the couple walking hand in hand along the pond. Markle's dress ensemble was composed of a black ball gown with an embellished bodice and a full skirt. It was done by Ralph & Russo who debuted it on their Fall/Winter 2017 couture runway.

Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle's engagement was announced last Nov. 27 by the Buckingham Palace. The royal wedding is set to take place at the renowned St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018. Coincidentally, Prince William and Kate Middleton will be expecting their third child just a month before the highly-anticipated wedding. Stay tuned for more reports as the situation unfolds.
