It has been much rumoured the lengths Harry will go to see his girlfriend, Suits actress Meghan Markle.
Before Pippa Middleton's wedding it was reported that the 32 year-old Prince made a 100 mile round trip to pick up his love.
Though the 36 year-old has closed down her lifestyle site The Tig, and is fairly low-key on her social media platforms, Markle has obviously still been busy flying between Toronto, where she films her hit show, and Heathrow, situated in the country where her Prince beau lives.
According to The Express, Harry has been secretly picking up Markle from Heathrow for months.
Obviously keen to squeeze as much quality time together as possible, Harry completes the birthday duty of airport pickup every time, but how do the high-profile couple manage to go incognito?
Apparently, Harry has used his Princely powers to ensure Meghan can bypass the usual public Passport queues and go straight to his car from the plane.
Sources at Heathrow say:
It's been happening for a while. Harry has a police escort on the tarmac in his black Audi RS6. He is accompanied by a bodyguard, with a people carrier following behind. Meghan usually only carries hand luggage. If she does check a suitcase into the hold it is put on last so it can be located as quickly as possible. All the necessary security checks must be carried out in advance or onboard because she walks straight from the plane steps to Harry's car.
This precaution is said to have been enforced after Meghan was consistently photographed at Terminal 2 .
The usual method of whisking royals, politicians and visiting dignitaries through the busy airport is by using the Windsor Suite.
The Windsor Suite is where 'VIPs are escorted directly to their aircraft after being security-screened away from the masses', however since the suite apparently costs £3,000 for each use, Harry decided to make his own arrangements.
Still, everything's worth the effort when you're madly in love.
