London, Europe Brief News – Prince Harry admitted that he and his wife Meghan first met in their new Netflix documentary – and it was through social media.
“I was scrolling through my feed and someone who was a friend had this video of the two of them”, he says in the first episode of ‘Harry and Meghan’.
Meghan then received an email from a friend asking if the royal could have their number, before they later met in London.
The start of Harry and Meghan’s romance was far from the royal norm. The British royal and the American actress first met when a mutual friend set them up on a blind date in 2016, with neither of them having any idea who the other was.
In fact, the only question Meghan had for their mutual friend prior to that first date was, “Is he nice?”
“Because if he wasn’t kind, it just, it didn’t seem like it would make sense,” she told the BBC in 2017. “And so we went and met for a drink and then I think very quickly into that we said, ‘Well, what are we doing tomorrow?'”
They quickly had two more “back-to-back” dates in London, Prince Harry told BBC News, and within a few weeks, Meghan traveled to Botswana with the prince, where they “camped out with each other under the stars.”
The first report of the couple’s relationship appeared in the British tabloid The Sunday Express on October 31, 2016. Citing anonymous sources, the outlet report that Harry, then 32, was in love with Meghan, who was 35 at the time.
