Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Just Made Their First Appearance As An Engaged Couple

Only hours after their engagement news was made public, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made their first appearance as an engaged couple. During a photo call on Monday, the couple took some snaps together, answered a few questions from reporters, and just looked generally thrilled to be together. Why wouldn't they be? Now, they can finally be open about the fact that they're spending the rest of their lives together, and that can only mean good things for those of us who have been rooting for them all along.

These photos are a huge deal, since until now, posed photos of Markle and Harry were practically non-existent, thanks to the fact that they had to keep their relationship low-key (well, as low-key as a member of the royal family can manage, anyway). But after the photo call? So much cuteness for fans of this beautiful family to enjoy, and this is just the beginning. They're sure to do plenty of press between now and the big day, after all.

Here are the best photos from Harry and Markle's engagement photo call — and obviously, after seeing them, there's no doubt that these two are meant to be... and that their future wedding photos are going to be insanely gorgeous.

This Video From The Event

To some, this is just a couple, standing and posing for photos. But to the rest of us, it's actual, video footage of Markle and Harry as a real couple, and its totally exciting. Just from this short minute and a half, it's easy to see how well these two relate to each other.

The Perfect Grin/Hand Holding Shot

Engagement photos can often be very awkward, but so far, Markle and Harry are killing it. See that slick hand hold where she's showing off her ring? Such a professional move.

So sparkly! And the two outside diamonds are from Princess Diana's jewelry collection, according to People.

The Sheer Happiness Of Being Together

Just in case you weren't already totally sold on the idea of Harry and Markle as a couple, this photo ought to do it for you. How gorgeous are they?

The Royal Wave

Harry's been waving to his adoring public practically since birth, but for Markle, this is all new. Sure, she's had the chance to meet her own fans since she's in the entertainment business, but waving to those who want to catch a glimpse of a royal couple in action? That's new territory, but from this wave alone, it seems like she's already adjusting very well.

The Best Adoring Gaze Ever

Is this relationship goals or what? We all need to find ourselves someone who looks at us like Harry and Markle look at each other.

Casually walking in the palace garden, looking like a dream. It seems so effortless. How do they do it? It's like you can tell they're gliding just from this still photograph.

If these photos are a sign of what we can expect during this engagement, it's certainly going to be so fun for fans to follow along with whatever comes next. Congratulations to this adorable (and very photogenic) couple. Now hurry up and get married so the world can obsess over those wedding photos.
