The late Princess Diana would approve of her son Prince Harry’s romance with Meghan Markle, according to a royal commentator.
Richard Fitzwilliams has claimed that the late royal – who passed away in 1997 after being involved in a fatal car crash in Paris, France – "would be proud" of the idea of a possible engagement between her youngest son Harry, 33, and his girlfriend Meghan.
Engagement rumours have been circling for months, and Richard believes the ‘Suits’ actress, 36, is "ideally placed to enhance the royal brand" because of the "charitable activities" she partakes in.
He said: "Harry’s forthcoming marriage will open a new and exciting chapter in the history of the House of Windsor.
"It is already the world’s most high profile royal family and Meghan’s links with show business and activism should mean that the charitable activities of the younger royals enjoy a global profile that is even wider.
"Meghan is placed to help fulfil the fondest wish of both princes, that Diana would be proud of what they achieve to help others."
Although Harry is yet to pop the question to Meghan, Richard believes an engagement "seems imminent".
He added to Express.co.uk: "The monarchy seems in safe hands because of the popularity of their grandchildren as well as their remarkable charitable work and the succession is assured.
"The announcement of Prince Harry’s engagement to the divorced American actress and humanitarian activist Meghan Markle seems imminent and this will be accompanied by an avalanche of publicity."
It comes as it was recently reported that Meghan is relocating her pet dogs to the UK because she "misses" them when she’s away from home, which has set tongues wagging that she could looking to stay in Britain more permanently.
A source said: "She is very close to those two dogs. She lets them sleep on her bed and they eat only the highest quality organic food.
"She misses them when she is away and will even get someone to FaceTime her with them.
"The fact she’s started the process of moving them to England is the clearest hint yet that she sees her future living in London with Harry."
