During the first episode, the smitten pair recall discovering their love for each other and viewers have spotted a series of interesting habits they have.
Meghan’s strictest relationship rule that could’ve been a deal breaker for the pair – but both of them were determined to make their love work.
In summer 2016, Meghan planned to have time off and see her prince but Harry had to go to Africa.
They spent a week together in a tent in the wilderness, and then she played her card.

“We had to get to know each other before the rest of the world and the media joined it,” says Harry.
“She had a two week rule,” he adds. “We had to see each other in or around two weeks.
“I said ‘how is that even possible with the stuff that I’m doing? I’m not going to be able to travel to see you that much’.”
So, Meghan flew to England, stayed on Kensington Palace grounds and went for walks around Frogmore.

Meghan calls Harry – or ‘H’ – a ‘plot twist’ in her life, and reveals how she judges a man by his social media feed.
Instead of Googling the prince to find out juicy details, Meghan had her own technique to find out more about her potential match.
“I asked if I could see his feed,” she explains. “When people say did you Google him? No, that’s your homework.
“Let me see what they’re about in their feed, not what someone else says about them.
“That to me was the best barometer.”
After their first date at a quiet restaurant in London, Meghan actually broke a very British tradition and decided to make the first move.
Instead of waiting for Harry to speak up, Meghan boldly asked him out to dinner.
“I called him that evening and said ‘look I’m leaving the day after tomorrow, do you want to grab dinner tomorrow night?’” she recalls.
“I’m sure he thought it was so forward and American – I’m sure he told me it was so forward and American.”
But it worked – they went for dinner at the same spot, and romance blossomed.
But Meghan’s not the only one with rules.
Before meeting his bride, Prince Harry had an extensive list of what he was looking for in a woman.
“He had a list apparently of what he was looking for,” Meghan admits. “An extensive list.”
When asked what was on his secret list, Harry disappoints us all.
“I’m not showing you the list,” he declares, shaking his head with a wry smile.
“Nice try,” he adds, pointing at Meghan. “This is the list.”
