The couple will live in Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace.
Both their families shared well wishes for them on social media:
The two have been dating for over a year. Engagement rumors started after the two took a trip to Africa in August, following their one-year anniversary. Multiple sources told Us Weekly that Harry was planning to propose during the trip. One added that the prince was never planning on immediately announcing it either. "Harry said he would want to enjoy the news between the two of them before word starts spreading out."
But now it's public, and the next royal wedding is ON. Wheee!
