Royal revelation: Here's how Harry won Meghan over

Prince Harry has finally revealed the secret behind his dating service.

According to a story published in The Independent, the 33-year-old royalty said that it is dating in reverse.

While most couples begin with dates out and about, before settling down on the couch for low profile evenings, Prince Harry and his new fiancee Meghan Markle’s initial courtship had to happen behind closed doors, before progressing to meals and drinks around town.

He says this is his simple recipe for building a strong relationship, and urged others to follow his lead.

Speaking about it, he added, “If anybody else at home - maybe slow down on the dates and spend more time at home. For us it's an opportunity to get to know each other without people on their mobile phones.”

The young prince added, “We've had to reverse the whole process, cosy nights in together in front of the television, cooking dinner a lot in our cottage rather than going out for dinner.”

He further said that it provided different opportunities and made the couple a lot closer.

The loved-up couple have said that they plan to start a family "in the near future", and revealed that Prince Harry popped the question after getting down on one knee.
