Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s engagement in November was taken as a delightful news by the couple’s many loyal followers. While the engagement has been predicted by many months prior to the official announcement, a new report states that the 33-year-old Prince Henry of Wales visited his late mother, Princess Diana’s grave before proposing to the 36-year-old actress.
