Hello dear readers,
A very Happy Thanksgiving to all of you across the pond and to those celebrating the day around the world.
A friend referred me to Lainey Gossip early on in Harry and Meghan's relationship. Her reports and sources have proved to be accurate time and time again. She shared interesting insight today on the UK media, describing them as "on high alert":
At this point, it looks like Meghan stayed in London for Thanksgiving (contrary to reports she would spend it in LA with her mother Doria). Viewing Meghan's social media posts, it's obvious she adores the holiday, spending time with family and cooking the turkey. If reports are true, and she is indeed still in London, it gives another layer of credence to the rumours. Royal reporters and media have been rather quiet on today's chatter. I also believe Harry's schedule is free next week... Again, there has been no official confirmation, but If I were a betting woman, I would wager this engagement is happening soon. Perhaps, as soon as tomorrow! :)

I received several messages on social media from readers sharing reports on an "imminent" engagement announcement. Certainly, I do not wish to spread false rumours and will begin by saying there is nothing concrete, no statement or confirmation from Kensington Palace, however, something is in the air and it most definitely looks like the announcement is on the cusp of happening.
Several media reports have emerged today, most notably the Evening Standard writes the BBC is primed and prepared for the announcement:
'The Londoner hears that the BBC is primed for a royal announcement. Rumours are flying around town that the engagement of Prince Harry and his girlfriend Meghan Markle is imminent, possibly even in the next few hours. Markle, pictured, has been increasingly seen around town — she has a new Volkswagen for spinning around the capital and her dogs are set to arrive in London from her home in Toronto.'
A friend referred me to Lainey Gossip early on in Harry and Meghan's relationship. Her reports and sources have proved to be accurate time and time again. She shared interesting insight today on the UK media, describing them as "on high alert":
'Last week, as I mentioned, media in the UK were making preparations for some kind of royal announcement that may or may not have been happening two days ago, on Tuesday. That was the day after Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s 70th anniversary. Everyone was asked to be on standby. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did not announce their engagement on Tuesday.
But now they’re readying for something to happen tomorrow and they’re reaching out to all kinds of media contacts to secure appearances for commentary. Satellite windows have been booked and at least two UK networks that I know of are preparing to come out of scheduled programming and go live as soon as the engagement is announced, if it’s announced. Although no one seems to be able to say for sure whether or not anything will be announced.
Whatever may or may not happen, I’m just telling you that the UK media is ready. And they seem to think it’s happening tomorrow which is why, behind the scenes, they’re on high alert.'
