The Queen Gives Royal Consent To Prince Harry And His Fiancee Meghan

The Queen has given her formal consent to the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

In a letter to the Privy Council, the monarch expressed her approval of the upcoming wedding between her 'most dearly beloved grandson' and his fiancee, 36.

A similar letter was signed by Her Majesty just one week before the 2011 wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. 

At a Privy Council meeting on Wednesday, the monarch made the declaration and will have signed a Great Seal of the Realm.

It read: 'I declare My Consent to a Contract of Matrimony between My Most Dearly Beloved Grandson Prince Henry Charles Albert David of Wales and Rachel Meghan Markle, which Consent I am causing to be signified under the Great Seal and to be entered in the Books of the Privy Council.'

The first six people in the line of succession must have the Queen's consent before they can marry on May 19, as set out by the Succession to the Crown Act 2013. 

Should Prince Harry have married Meghan without the monarch's approval, he and his descendants would be banned from ever ascending to the throne.

The act's introduction saw sex removed as a determining factor in the line of succession, meaning Prince Harry is fifth-in-line behind Princess Charlotte. 

A monarch's permission has been sought for those in the line of succession since the 18th century.

Under the Royal Marriages Act 1772, all descendants of George II had to obtain the sovereign's agreement before they wed, otherwise the marriage was invalid

A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: ‘Her Majesty finally gave consent to the marriage of Prince Harry and Ms Meghan Markle under the Succession to the Crown Act by making a declaration at the meeting of the Privy Council on March 14, 2018.’ 

The announcement comes as it was revealed Prince Harry took Meghan Markle to a secret meeting with traumatised war veterans that he says 'shocked us to our core'.

The 33-year-old – who himself served two tours on the frontline in Afghanistan - told how over the years he has seen his own forces buddies 'suffer, struggling to seek out the help they desperately need'.

A few weeks ago he took Meghan, 36, to meet other former service men and women trying to get care for crippling mental health problems, as he was keen to introduce her to a side of his public work that held such enormous personal resonance.

The pair visited Colchester Garrison, in Essex, where they spent time at The North Essex Veterans Mental Health Network away from the cameras and glare of publicity.

The former actress, who will become his wife on May 19 at Windsor Castle, has herself been holding private meetings with charities as she prepares to carve out her own role in 'The Firm'.

Meghan Markle joined the rest of the Royal Family for the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey yesterday, and she proved she has well and truly joined the firm now. 

We've previously spotted her wearing coats by J.Crew, Mackage, Burberry and Stella McCartney, but this time her cream cover-up is by Amanda Wakeley. Fans of the brand include the Duchess of Cambridge, Princess Beatrice and Theresa May so she's in good company! 

We love the ribbon detailing around the waist, as well as the stand-up collar on this coat, which you can buy now by clicking the link (right). When teamed with a dress which is also Amanda Wakeley and a Mulberry bag, it's a flawless look.
