Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are totally smitten, and the world adores their love story as much as they enjoy one another. The royal and the former actress have been inseparable since their first blind date in London back in 2016. After keeping their relationship tightly under wraps for nearly a year, the duo made their official debut at the Invictus Games in Toronto in 2017, swiftly followed by their highly anticipated engagement in November.
While the world loves a good royal romance story of any kind, these lovebirds are cherished for something not-so-royal, too: their public displays of affection! Right off the bat, it was clear that Meghan and Harry weren't afraid of holding hands and embracing each other, something that is typically against protocol for members of the Royal Family. But lucky for their fans, it seems like their new titles, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, haven't had much of an impact on their love for hand-holding!
