Just hours after announcing their engagement to the world, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have given their first interview as a couple.
In the 20-minute chat with BBC Radio 4's Today presenter Mishal Husain, they spoke in depth about how they met, how they dated without anyone knowing, and their plans for the future.

The couple confirmed that they were introduced to each other about a year and a half ago, set up by a "mutual friend" who they didn't want to name.
The proposal took place a few weeks ago in 'their cottage', where they've apparently spent a lot of time in order to avoid the public eye.
Meghan said she gave an "instant yes", adding: "I could barely let you finish proposing."
They both said they knew little of each other before meeting, with the royal never having watched Markle's most well-known show Suits.
"I was beautifully surprised when I walked into that room and saw her... I was like, 'I'm going to have to up my game'," he said of the first date.
"It was really refreshing," Meghan added of the mutual lack of background knowledge, saying she was able to get to know Harry in person, rather than through his public reputation.
Harry explained they had "two dates" then a "huge leap", "going effectively on holiday together in the middle of nowhere and sharing a tent together".
The couple also addressed the scrutiny and pressures of dating a royal, with Markle saying: "As naive as it sounds... I did not have any understanding of just what it would be like."
"I tried to warn you as much as possible," Harry responded, "but I think both us were surprised by the reaction after five five, six months... about what actually happened from there."
When it was put to Meghan that she'd be "giving up her career", she appeared to confirm that she would stop acting, saying: "I don't see it as giving anything up, I just see it as a change.
"And keep in mind, I've been working on my show [Suits] for seven years, so we were very, very fortunate to have that sort of longevity on a series, and for me, when we hit the 100-episode marker, I thought, 'You know what, I have ticked this box and I feel really proud of the work I've done there, and now it's time to... work as a team [with Harry]'."
Digital Spy has reached out to Markle's representatives for clarification on whether she is leaving Suits.
Asked about meeting the Queen, Meghan said: "It's incredible... to be able to meet her through his lens... [seeing] the love that he has for her as a grandmother."
And the Corgis? "[They] took to you straight away," Harry said, joking that he'd spent "the last 33 years being barked at" by them.
The engagement ring was then put on show, with Harry explaining it's yellow gold, "her favourite", with a main stone sourced from Botswana, and diamonds from Princess Diana's jewellery collection, "to make sure that she's with us on this crazy journey together".
"The inclusion of that, and not being able to meet his mum, it's so important to me to know that she's a part of this with us," Meghan added.
If you're not into the royal thing, you may at least be interested to know if we're getting a national day off for the wedding... but unfortunately that's not looking likely.
Oh, and you know how we've been calling her Meghan? *Whispers* That's not her real name.
