The 'Suits' actress and the British Prince have been dating since mid-2016 and as their relationship has become increasingly serious over recent months, Katie Nicholl now believes they are poised to live together before announcing their engagement.

Katie said: "I am told by my sources that Meghan is likely to be moving to London as soon as November.

"She's not signing up for another series of 'Suits'. She's planning to leave Canada and make London her new, permanent home."

The insider also suggested that the loved-up duo - whose relationship has made headlines around the world - will move into a small cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace.

Katie told 'Entertainment Tonight': "There's a lot of talk about where exactly they'll live.

"Currently Prince Harry lives at Nottingham Cottage which is a three-bedroom, small cottage in the [Kensington Palace] grounds.

"I am told that she will be moving into Kensington Palace - in fact, she already keeps a wardrobe of clothes at Harry's house over in Kensington Palace and she's going to be spending all of her time over here from now on."

And in terms of when their long-awaited proposal may be announced, Katie explained that it may depend on other major events and landmarks.

She said: "I think particularly with royal engagements, it really is all about the timing.

"You have to remember there are other engagements and events coming up in the royal calendar that an engagement simply couldn't clash with. I think that the new year is probably a more realistic prospect for an engagement announcement."
