Playing matchmaker can be fun, but can you imagine how great it would feel to be the lucky person that set up Meghan Markle and Prince Harry? 

All sorts of suggestions have been thrown out as to who the 'secret friend' is that Harry referred to in their first joint interview together, from fashion designer Misha Nonoo to Meghan's best friend, stylist Jessica Mulroney.

However, E! News confirmed that cupid was Violet von Westenholz, a childhood friend of Harry's.

33-year-old Violet is the daughter of Baron Piers von Westenholz, a former Olympic skier and a close friend of Prince Charles.

Violet has long been in Harry's close circle of friends, and even became his confidante when it came to romantic matters.

A source told E! News that Harry was having a difficult time meeting someone, despite feeling ready to start a new relationship.

Can you imagine if he popped up on Tinder? The scandal! So instead, Violet came to the rescue.

Violet and Meghan clicked when they met through the 33-year-old's PR work with Ralph Lauren.

Harry's bride-to-be was fitting in well with the high society set in London, and Violet thought the actress may just be the perfect woman for her childhood friend.

And she couldn't have been more right!

Rumours that Prince Harry had started dating Suits actress, Meghan Markle, began circulating late last year, however, the pair have remained notoriously tight-lipped about their blossoming romance.

That is, until now. Speaking to Vanity Fair, the 36-year-old actress has finally opened about the fairy-tale love story, admitted they are a couple and are “really happy” together.

She also insisted that despite the fact that Harry is such a high-profile figure, their relationship is no different than anyone else's.

“I can tell you that at the end of the day I think it's really simple,” she said.

“We're two people who are really happy and in love. We were very quietly dating for about six months before it became news, and I was working during that whole time, and the only thing that changed was people's perception.”

"Nothing about me changed. I'm still the same person that I am, and I've never defined myself by my relationship."

Though they have been dating for well over a year now, Meghan and Harry have, for the most part, managed to keep their romance away from the prying eyes of paparazzi.

And even when the tabloids do manage to string together a story, the actress has a pretty fool proof coping strategy – just don't read them.

“I don’t read any press. I haven’t even read press for Suits. The people who are close to me anchor me in knowing who I am. The rest is noise.”

But, it seems the couple know that this sort of secrecy can't go on forever, with Meghan admitting she knows one day it will be time for them “to come forward.”

"I'm sure there will be a time when we will have to come forward and present ourselves and have stories to tell, but I hope what people will understand is that this is our time.

"This is for us. It's part of what makes it so special, that it's just ours. But we're happy. Personally, I love a great love story.''

So do we Meghan, so do we.
