The world is as captivated with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle [1]'s romance as they were with Prince William and Kate Middleton's love story. We've followed every milestone of the twosome's relationship since their first official outing as a couple at the Invictus Games [2] last year, and the pair has only gotten more serious since then. So far we've enjoyed key events like their sweet engagement announcement [3], their first Christmas with the Queen [4], and their first outing on official royal business [5].
Ever since the couple set the date for their upcoming royal nuptials [6] on May 19, though, it seems like the whole world has been wondering the same question: where the newlyweds will be honeymooning [7] once the festivities are done?
Given Prince Harry's love of warm climates [8], it's only natural that speculation is leading us all to believe they'll choose somewhere hot. The fact they fell in love while on holiday in Botswana [9] means the country has a special place in their hearts, and they've also had an open invitation from the Prime Minister of Antigua [10] to spend their honeymoon on the Caribbean island. If the insider reports are true, there's also a chance we may just see Harry and Megan follow William and Kate's example, with a honeymoon in the Seychelles [11]. According to a source, Us Weekly reports [12] that we won't have to wait too much longer to hear where they plan to jet off after the wedding.
"At the moment nothing has been booked, but expect a decision to be made within a month," the source revealed, adding that certain security measures will be put in place once Harry and Meghan pick a destination. "Once the decision has been made, they will have a security team fly out to do reconnaissance and the info will be confidential. Should anything get out they would feel the trip's compromised and pick a new destination."
The source noted that the royal couple definitely has somewhere "hot and sunny" in mind for their two week getaway. Regardless of where they end up, we have a feeling they won't be flying economy [13] for this trip!
