Prince Harry and Meghan Markle look SUPER cute on their first official engagement

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made their first joint official public engagement in Nottingham today!

The newly-engaged couple wore matching long navy coats to brave the arctic conditions in the Midlands city.

Prince Harry and Meghan were greeted by crowds of well-wishers as they arrived in Nottingham ahead of their visit to a World Aids Day charity fair, hosted by the Terrence Higgins Trust.

A former royal spokesperson, Dickie Arbiter, told the BBC: "They've taken their time, they're talking to as many people as possible - it has been the best part of half an hour. It is important that they meet as many people as possible.

"They are standing out there, they're cold, they've been waiting a long time, and the feeling is if they have waited for us, then we can spend as much time as possible with them."

Meghan and Harry announced their engagement on Monday after 15 months of dating. They are due to get married next May at Windsor Castle, with the event set to be televised.

Sadly, there will be no bank holiday to mark the occasion, although it is speculated that it will occur during the late May bank holiday anyway.
