Prince Harry says he is "thrilled" after announcing he is to marry US actress girlfriend Meghan Markle.
The fifth in line to the throne will marry Markle in spring 2018.
The Clarence House statement said the prince and Markle were engaged earlier this month and Harry informed the Queen and other close members of his family. They will live in Kensington Palace.
Prince Harry said it had been a romantic proposal, while Markle said she was very happy.
Kensington Palace said Markle's engagement ring was designed by Prince Harry and features two diamonds which belonged to his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.
