It looks like Prince Harry isn't the only member of the British Royal Family to be engaged! Princess Eugenie, the second daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson is engaged to long term boyfriend Jack Brooksbank. The wedding will be held at the same place as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding, St George's Chapel, which is at Windsor Castle, this fall. The Queen and Prince Philip has said "very pleased and wish the couple all the best". Now, here is the ring news. Her ring has a beautiful pink jewel in the center called a padparadscha sapphire. Which is in fact, extremely rare. It is surrounded by diamonds.

Here is what a padparadscha sapphire looks like:

    They all seem to have a engagement pose to show off their ring. I wonder if this too will be televised?

At this point, people had not started to arrive yet, and it was mainly reporters speculating about Meghan's dress. 4:30 to 5:00 am - People started to come, mainly aristocrats, Hollywood stars, and friends of Harry and Meghan, including Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, and Prince Harry's ex Chelsy Davy. Reporters also interviewed people who had charities that Harry and Meghan supported. Sometime after that, (I lost track of the time,) some more celebrities and aristocrats came, including the Middletons, the Beckhams and the Clooneys, as well as some more actresses. Then, the royal family began to arrive. The first royal that I saw was Zara Tindall, who is  pregnant with her second child, who is due v...
