Catherine continued to send her well wishes to the duo – who have been dating for over one year – and she only hopes the couple "enjoy" this "happy moment".
She added: "And we wish them all the best and hope they enjoy this happy moment."
Catherine is not the only member of the royal family who is pleased with the news, as the Duchess of Cornwall – who is married to Harry’s father the Prince of Wales – is "absolutely delighted" Harry and Meghan are engaged, and that the brunette beauty will soon be her stepdaughter-in-law.
Speaking previously, the 70-year-old said: "It’s brilliant and as I said, America’s loss is our gain. We are all absolutely delighted."
And Camilla – who was previously married to Andrew Parker-Bowles for over 20 years before their split in 1995 – continued to gush about the couple, who she believes look "so happy" together.

"Sometimes, you know, in a climate where we are surrounded by a lot of bad news, it’s a real joy to have some good news for once."
