Royal Wedding Rumours: November's first whispers


Another week, another round of royal rumours about engagements and weddings involving a certain prince called Harry and Meghan Markle. This week has been fairly quiet on the wedding whispers front but there's still more than enough to plough through as we head into November, long tipped to be the month when Harry and Meghan will do the whole show off a diamond thing at St James' Palace. As the big month dawned, there was lots of talk about clothes, homes and nicknames. Time to get busy with a round up of royal wedding rumours....

Let's start with clothes. Yep, we all know that if when Meghan becomes a royal duchess, there will be a huge focus on what she wears but it's begun already with Cosmopolitan magazine noting that Ms Markle's outfits have become noticeably more conservative in recent times. Apparently, this is because the Queen has a ''no knees'' policy for regal clothing which prevents both men and women of the House of Windsor flashing the thighs while out and about. Several titles have this week been asking whether Meghan, who used to like a pair of shorts or mini skirt, is now keeping her hems to calf and ankle length. Hard for us to tell as she's rarely seen in public right now but apparently no one should be surprised if her next appearance sees her in a tweed two piece with pearls aplenty.

The Mail on Sunday has a good old chat about what Meghan might do with herself when she moves to London later this month, a shift apparently set in stone for the paper. Right now, Megs is finishing her stint on Suits where she plays Rachel Zane and once that's done in a few weeks' time she is apparently setting up home in the capital. The paper suggests she might set up her own foundation - well, Meghan is already noted for her humanitarian work so just about everyone expects her to focus on that as her life changes. And don't forget, to give notice of marriage she needs to be resident in England or Wales. Not that we're starting any rumours here but....

A good royal romance needs at least one story a week that includes the word ''adorable'' in its headline and Harry and Meghan kept up the tradition this week. OK magazine reported on their ''adorable nicknames'' but you can put the sick bucket to one side, there's no ''cuddle bundle'' and ''honey bunny'' here. Beneath the headline is a round up of nicknames the couple have been known by already. Apparently, Meghan has sometimes been called Meg while her mum, Doria, likes to call her ''Flower''. We all know that her beau is really Prince Henry but has been known as Harry since birth. The article also explains that his mum, Diana, liked to called him ''My Little Spencer'' because of the red hair he inherited from her side of the family. Honey bunny is actually easier to say....more royal wedding rumours next week.

Royal Wedding Rumours - this week's round up


There's only one royal story we're really all waiting for and it's THAT engagement. Since just about everyone decided it's when rather than if for Harry and Meghan, the chatter about the couple has gone into overdrive. It moves so fast, it's hard to keep up. So from now until we get the big anno (let's face it that might be hours), there will be a weekly round up of the most high profile whispers about the couple right here. Settle down for your first dose of royal wedding rumours.....



Much of this week's speculation about the royal romance of the year came from the Channel 4 documentary, When Harry Met Meghan: A Royal Romance, which aired in the UK this weekend (check out the Channel 4 website here). Top of the excitement was the news that Harry is hoping to marry his telly crush. Katie Nicholl, royal correspondent for the Mail on Sunday and Vanity Fair, told the show that Harry had admitted fancying Meghan almost two years before their relationship started. She relayed a conversation she'd had with a friend of the prince a couple of years ago in which Harry, then single, had revealed his ideal woman was ''Meghan Markle from Suits''.

We also got confirmation, as if any were needed, that Markus Anderson is destined to be cast forever as a royal matchmaker (like accompanying Meghan to the Invictus Games opening and then hanging out with her, Harry and Doria at the closing event hadn't already cemented his place). The show was the latest to talk about how the man who was a friend of both before they even met brought Harry and Meghan together, adding them both to the guest list for a private gathering at Soho House in London in July 2016 after the prince asked him to help in the getting to know you process. Hazza and Megs got chatting and the rest, as they say, is royal history.




Just about every royal couple you can name is related to one another in some fashion (clearly in a less awkward and genetically complex way than used to be the norm in the Middle Ages). In fact you know a regal relationship is really serious when someone produces a family tree linking the two beloveds via a long dead person neither has ever heard of. Harry and Meghan are no exception - this week, the Mail on Sunday discovered that if this pair of lovebirds go all the way back to the 15th century, they have a common ancestor. The man whose genes they share is Ralph Bowes who was born in 1480 and rose to the rank of High Sheriff of Durham. Let's put Ralph on the list of potential baby names right now and add in Margery (his mum and his daughter shared the name) for good measure. Deal done.

This week also produced the now standard number of stories about how a) the couple are already engaged b) they've already set a date (anytime between now and Christmas 2018, pick your favourite) and c) they're getting married in Westminster Abbey/ Windsor/ St Paul's (delete as applicable). This part will no doubt end up being the most regularly repeated part of the rumours round up until we get all the details from the couple themselves. More whispers next week....
