They look really comfortable together. They compliment eachother in looks imo.

If I were just going by the pics here, Meghan and Prince Harry attend the friend's wedding in Jamaica | NEWMYROYALS & HOLLYWOOD FASHION, I wouldn't think they looked like a good couple. Harry doesn't look happy and Meghan seems to be the one putting her arm around him each time. Even in the photo where he's looking straight at her, he looks annoyed.

Granted, these are only a few photos of them together...with Meghan resuming her show next month, I wonder how many more we'll get?

I am aware that what I said could be taken as a slight against Harry. So be it. I wish Harry well but I am not a 'fan', like I am a fan (advocate) for someone else.

Unfortunately (perhaps) I am always a woman who sees it from the woman's point of view, and I think in terms of 'good bets'. I'm not sure Harry is a 'good bet' for any woman at his stage of his game. He needs more 'seasoning' methinks, given his public behavior in recent years (though he has admittedly 'cleaned up his act' recently, PR is very different from RL).

When I see those photos I see an imbalance, and I see Meghan (who I do not know) in a no-win situation. All good luck to her, I say. I am happy for her if she is genuinely happy with the path she's taking on.

I thought this was a cute silly article in the midst of all the wedding bells talk.

I agree. Oh well. It's for sure hard to have one's personal relationship under such scrutiny, and this is not a photo-call, but we've all seen couples clearly enamored (Harry and Chelsy come to mind), and these are not one of those, yet anyway. (Feeling for Meghan right now. What an experience she must be having!)

Always the comparison of Chelsy and Harry. Please, Harry was a boy when he dated Chelsy, when we are younger we have a more relaxed behavior, now he is a man. He could be bored with the papps, he does not like to be photographed in intimate moments, everyone already knows. In this photo he looks at her with a sweet look.

There's not one couple who looks smitten and full on PDA at all times. Meghan and Harry seem touchy with each other, but they are adults who aren't going to sit on each other's laps or cuddle when talking to other people or ordering drinks. That would be horribly obnoxious and rude.

To me they seem like a normal couple talking at a wedding.

Totally agree with the bolded. Lets remember too, that as time passed, Harry wasn't as affectionate in public with either Chelsy or Cressida. However, I think it's worth noting how he has had no problem letting anyone know that he and Meghan are a couple, starting with the letter and eventually the sightings of them holding hands. That's why I'm a bit amused at the idea that he looks unhappy or annoyed. I have seen Harry look unhappy and annoyed, this was not it. He looks pretty normal and relaxed to me.

I agree. Meghan and Harry appear to be a warm and affectionate couple. They looked particularly relaxed in these latest photos.

I think Harry looked temporarily a bit annoyed at something. I like this couple, and I know the minute I say this they'll probably break up (LOL) but I would love to see a wedding!!

The main thing that matters to me is that Harry is happy and does what he truly wants in his heart whatever that is.

Maybe there's a very simple reason for looking glum that we're overlooking. He drank the water.

I've never thought Harry was high maintenance ...never heard anything "leaked" indicating that either.

I think he and Meghan look very relaxed with each other...just like any other couple seriously dating. Without having a series of pics in a row you really can't tell too much about what's going on in a single shot where he appears to be annoyed. No one is 'on' all the time.

Not a good bet at this stage of his game? Whyever not? What events are we talking about? Pre-military deployment or after?

What a delightful, harmless bit of fun.

I believe that, unlike the bride and groom and other guests, who had only to 'fear' the wedding revellry photos, most of which the photographer would be right there for all to see. Harry had to know that there would be long lens photos taken around which whole novels could be written.

Most of the photos in the DM were fuzzy and from a distance and I don't think Harry and Megan actually posed for one single legitimate photo together. In many photos we don't know who else is beside them, in front of them, sitting with them, etc. so to be honest, none of what we have seen is in actual context. We are writing the narrative and that narrative is influenced by personal bias, lousy body language reading, specualation and even romantic hope. None of which makes it true.

LaRae

I think to some extent the royal is always going to be high maintenance compared to the non royal in a relationship; not because their personality is necessarily high maintenance, but because their role and the restrictions that accompany it lead to them being high maintenance.

As for being able to tell what's going on in a picture... even with a series of pics you're frequently guessing. Is Harry in a bad mood? Having a serious conversation? Is he needy because she put her arm around him... or did it just make sense within the context of the conversation they were having - which we don't know about?

All we really know based on these pictures is that they're serious enough that he's taking her to his friends' weddings (which he did not do with Cressida) and that she's comfortable enough to display affection towards him in public.

When it was known that they were dating, I confess it was hard for me to picture them together. But now that I've seen these first pictures, I totally fell in love with this couple. I'll be waiting excitely to see more of them together in the future, they've got a new fan!
