And good for him! Prince Harry is leaving royal protocol, a bit. F them, btw, for being so mean to his sweet dead mother.
I had to look this young lady up and found this on Wiki:
"
Markle was born on August 4, 1981, in Los Angeles.[8] Of her parents she has said, "my dad is Caucasian and my mom is African-American ... I have come to embrace [this and] say who I am, to share where I'm from, to voice my pride in being a strong, confident, mixed-race woman."[9] Her mother, Doria Radlan, has a master's degree in social work from the University of Southern California and works as a psychotherapist and yoga instructor.[8][10] Her father, of Dutch, English, Irish and Scottish descent,[11][12] is Emmy award-winning lighting director Thomas W. Markle, whose profession resulted in his young daughter often visiting the set of Married with Children."

Do alot of charity work, as well as their millitary service. They are sort of the anti Don jr. and Eric. Congrats to the happy couple.

got the boys out of bed when no-one was about, and they drove them through the slums, etc. so they could see how others lived. She was an amazing woman.

Both Princes seem to have a great sense of humour.
I wish them all the best.
