From an adorable son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor to a whirlwind exit from their senior royal roles, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry have always given us something to chat about.

Of course, one thing has remained constant and consistent – their tremendous passion and drive for a better world – both for themselves and their son.

And at the foundation of their relationship lies a huge amount of love and respect for one another – it’s clear they’re already sharing this bond with baby Archie – especially after Prince Harry told a member of the public that he “can’t imagine life” without his one-year-old son.

Now, looking back at their love story, Harry and Meghan kept details of their relationship secret at the beginning. In fact, it was only when Meghan Markle was being bullied by press that Prince Harry confirmed they were an item.

Harry, the chivalrous gentleman that he is, issued a rare statement from the palace as a warning to anyone harassing her or her family. He refused to delve into personal details too soon, and instead focused his energy on protecting Meghan and her privacy.

Similarly, Duchess Meghan kept her lips (mostly) zipped about her relationship, and refused to read any negative news or criticism from naysayers— focusing instead on nurturing their relationship.

Instead of entertaining any criticism, they put all their energy into letting their love flourish and grow into something truly magical. And it looks like it sure paid off as the pair continue to show us what a power house they are together.

They haven’t revealed too many secrets yet, but what they have said speaks volumes about how much they cherish each other.

From Prince Harry reminiscing about the first time he met Meghan, to Meghan getting adorably thrilled about Prince Harry’s romantic proposal, these quotes could warm anyone’s heart on even the coldest day.

And even hours after the birth, Harry was besotted with his wife and new baby, telling media: “I’m incredibly proud of my wife… How any women does what they do is beyond comprehension.”

Miscarriage

In November 2020, Meghan penned a searing essay about her devastating miscarriage, which had occurred four months prior. Her powerful words about loss struck a chord, but one small comfort was her husband, Prince Harry, who was her pillar of strength during the difficult time. “Sitting in a hospital bed, watching my husband’s heart break as he tried to hold the shattered pieces of mine, I realised that the only way to begin to heal is to first ask, ‘Are you OK?'” Meghan wrote.
