PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle’s engagement has prompted an outpouring of congratulations online, including an adorable response from her former Suits co-star.
Markle starred as Rachel Zane in the TV drama alongside her on-screen fiance Mike Ross (played by actor Patrick J Adams).
Adams tweeted today that Harry was a “lucky man”.
“Playing Meghan’s television partner for the better part of a decade uniquely qualifies me to say this: Your Royal Highness, you are a lucky man and I know your long life together will be joyful, productive and hilarious,” Adams said on twitter.

“Meghan, so happy for you, friend. Much love.”
Earlier, Adams posted a tongue-in-cheek tweet with a photo of the newly engaged royals: “She said she was just going out to get some milk …”
Both Markle and Adams left Suits at the end of the current series — its seventh.
Suits star Gabriel Macht — who plays main character Harvey Specter — and the show’s creator Aaron Korsh also offered their congratulations.

In their first interview as a couple, Harry said he decided to pop the question on a “cosy night” at Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace after dating Markle for about 18 months.
“It happened a few weeks ago, earlier this month, here at our cottage; just a standard typical night for us … trying to roast a chicken,” Harry said, in an interview with the BBC.
Ms Markle said the proposal was “an amazing surprise”.
“It was so sweet and natural and very romantic. He got on one knee,” she said.
Asked whether it was an “instant yes”, Prince Harry said “of course”.
