It's the news we all knew was coming [1]: Prince William will be best man when Prince Harry marries Meghan Markle next month [2].

Kensington Palace made the announcement by sharing a sweet set of photos on Instagram [3], showing the two brothers together over the years, explaining that "The Duke of Cambridge is honoured to have been asked, and is very much looking forward to supporting his brother at St George's Chapel, Windsor on May 19th."

Harry stood at William's side when he married Kate Middleton in 2011 [4], so it's no surprise that he has asked his older brother to return the favor. Here's hoping William, who recently welcomed his third child with Kate [5], has time to practice his speech between all those diaper changes!
