The 32-year-old royal has been in a relationship with the 'Suits' actress for just under a year, and his close pal and Argentine polo player is thrilled with their burgeoning romance as he believes Harry "deserves the best".

Speaking to Hello! magazine at the 10th annual Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic in New Jersey, Nacho said: "I can say that I'm very happy for him. If he's happy, I'm happy. He's a guy that I like very much and he deserves the best."

According to the publication, the 40-year-old sports star also noted the flame-haired royal looks "happier" since being in a relationship with 35-year-old Meghan.

The news comes after it was recently reported Harry - who is the younger brother of Prince William and the son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana - already "can't wait" to become a father one day.

A source claimed: "Having a baby with Meghan is all that Harry talks about at the moment - he can't wait to be a dad."

And although things are going from strength to strength between the pair, Prince Harry is reportedly cautious of popping the question and proposing to Meghan too quickly, after watching his own parents go through divorce.

Another insider said: "Coming from divorced parents himself, Harry is adamant that when he marries, he will marry forever - plus, of course, there's his status to consider.

"Harry is very conscious of his position in the royal family, he takes his duties very seriously, and he has no desire to cause any type of scandal, so he's not going to rush into anything - they haven't even been dating for a full year yet!"

Meanwhile, it has also been claimed Harry and Meghan are "wildly in love" with one another, and whilst the source insisted the pair haven't been discussing children or marriage just yet, it's "likely" to be on the cards in the future.

The source said: "Meghan and Harry are extremely happy and wildly in love, but there's no talk about marriage and babies, at least not yet.

"It would seem likely to be in the cards in the future, but they have no desire to rush into things. Just like with his older brother, William, Harry wants to be 100 percent sure before entering into wedlock."
