Quote:

He proposed last night at their home - just weeks after William popped the question to Kate Middleton.
Unlike William, who kept his engagement secret for almost a month, the Royal Family were quickly informed of the news.
Buckingham Palace said today that the Queen and Prince Philip are 'delighted' by the development.

If he proposed last night, it isn't "weeks" since William proposed to Kate.
