LONDON, ENGLAND – NOVEMBER 27: Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle during an official photocall to announce their engagement at The Sunken Gardens at Kensington Palace on November 27, 2017 in London, England. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been a couple officially since November 2016 and are due to marry in Spring 2018.

When it came to Vanity Fair’s big scoop in 2017 — being able to confirm rumors that Harry was dating Meghan, a supporting actor in the TV show “Suits” — she herself spread the news. “We’re a couple. We’re in love,” Meghan proclaimed into writer Sam Kashner’s “recording device.” Certainly, being asked to be on the cover of Vanity Fair was a major coup for Meghan, as it’s still considered a rare honor in celebrity world to be so featured in the national magazine. But working with her publicists at Sunshine Sachs to make the story palatable to Harry, Meghan insisted that the story not dwell on her personal life but present her “as a major actor and especially as an activist and philanthropist,” Bower reported.

During her interview with Kashner, Meghan shared information about herself that has become part of the lore around her. According to Bower, she talked about “my speech to the U.N.” and her success as an 11-year-old fighting sexism in advertising for Procter & Gamble products.
