When asked if she instantly replied during their joint engagement interview with the BBC back in 2017, she said: "Yes! As a matter of fact, I could barely let you finish proposing. I said, 'Can I say yes now?'"
"She didn't even let me finish!" Harry added, revealing she was so delighted that she forgot about the sentimental trilogy ring he had designed especially for her! "Then there was hugs and I had the ring, and I said, 'Can I give you the ring?' and she said, 'Oh yes, the ring!' It was a really nice moment, it was just the two of us and I think I managed to catch her by surprise."

He gave her a special diamond sourced from Botswana, where the couple vacationed together, flanked by his late mother Princess Diana's diamonds.

"I think I can very safely say, as naive as it sounds now, having gone through this learning curve in the past year and a half, I did not have any understanding of just what it would be like. I don't think either of us did though," the doting mother-of-two said, referring to the intense media interest in their relationship.
Harry continued: "I tried to warn you as much as possible. But I think both of us were totally surprised by the reaction after the first five or six months that we had to ourselves, of what actually happened from then.
"I think you can have as many conversations as you want and try and prepare as much as possible but we were totally unprepared for what happened after that."
