PRINCE Harry has been secretly dating American actress Meghan Markle, it is claimed, and has even won the approval of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

According to The Sun, Harry is said to be “besotted” by the brunette beauty who’s best known for her role as Rachel Zane on US legal drama Suits and she has already met brother William and wife Kate.

A source close to Harry, 32, told the Sunday Express: “He’s happier than he’s been for many years.

“He’s in a very relaxed period of his life and Meghan has come along at the right time.”

Desperate to keep their romance under the radar, the stunning actress reportedly has made several low-key visits to London, also meeting with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

The insider said: “William and Kate really liked her and she fitted in straight away.

“They are taking each week as it comes and just enjoying each other’s company but it’s fair to say that they love seeing each other and there’s a definite chemistry between them.”

Kensington Palace would not comment on the rumoured romance as it’s a “private matter”

Markle, 35, is believed to have crossed paths with Harry in May, while the royal was in Toronto to promote his Invictus Games for disabled servicemen.

Born in Los Angeles, the actress now lives in Toronto where Suits is filmed.

The insider added: “Harry has been desperate to keep the relationship quiet because he doesn’t want to scare Meghan off.

“He knows things will change when their romance is public knowledge but he also knows he can’t keep it a secret for long.”

The pair both share a passion for humanitarian work, with Markle working for several organisations including World Vision Canada and the United Nations.

She also has visited Afghanistan to support US soldiers and their families.

Markle was previously married film producer Trevor Engelson in 2011, but the pair split in 2013.

The actress isn’t the first star to have been linked to Harry in recent years.

Last year claims of a fledgling romance between Harry and singer Ellie Goulding emerged after it was reported the pair were seen getting very close at a British polo event in July 2015.

It was also believed that Brit actress Jenna Coleman 30, caught the eye of the royal during a polo match at Ascot, where the pair were spotted getting cosy, chatting the night away on a sofa.

And back in June, Harry, who split from long-term girlfriend Cressida Bonas earlier this year, revealed his secret desire to take part on the British television dating show Take Me Out to help him find the one.
