Prince Harry Engaged to Marry American

Everyone probably already knows, but Prince Cares formally announced the engagement of his youngest son, Prince Harry to American Meghan Markle this morning. 

Posted on m Facebook page, but forgot to post here!

The couple met on a blind date, introduced by friends.

The ring deatures a Namibian Diamond flanked by 2 from Princess Diana's jewelry, that was inherited by her sons.

The wedding is to be in spring 2018, which will be interesting because William and Catherine are expecting in late April.

Okay...if you didn't know, now you do!

Happy 70th Wedding Anniversary to Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip

Nonember 20th, 2017 marks the 70th wedding anniversary of Queen Elizabsth and Prince Philip who were married on November 20th, 1947.

70 years is an amazing acheivement! My husband and I are at 44, and that seems like a lifetime spent with my other half.

The Royal Mint is also releasing specially minted coins for the anniversary...

Which is a nice tribute...
