Meghan and Harry share unseen photo from when they were dating

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have given royal fans a rare glimpse into their lives when they were dating.

Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, shared a previously unseen snap on their new Instagram account, which was taken on a trip to Botswana in 2017.

In the intimate photo, the famous couple are shown assisting Dr. Mike Chase of Elephants Without Borders by equipping a bull elephant with a satellite collar.

The now-duke and duchess are dressed casually, kneeling on the ground in the , while fitting the collar to the sedated elephant, which allows scientists to track its movements.

It was included in a carousel of photos to highlight the duke’s work around conservation and protecting the planet, after he, brother William and their father Prince Charles attended the premiere of David Attenborough’s new Netflix documentary ‘Our Planet,’ on Thursday night.

Harry and Meghan, who are expecting their first child in the coming weeks, began dating in July 2016 but they managed to keep the relationship secret for a few months.

The couple were spotted travelling to Botswana in Southern Africa in August 2017, around the time of Meghan’s 36th birthday. There were rumours at the time that a proposal was imminent but nothing was confirmed.

The pair made their first public appearance together at the Invictus Games in Toronto a month later.

On November 27, 2017 the prince and the former actress announced their engagement and were married at St George’s Chapel in Windsor in May 2018.

On Thursday it was revealed that Harry and Meghan have moved to their new official residence at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, ahead of the baby’s birth.
