Listen, let's talk about Prince Harry for a moment. The guy has always had this certain charm that sets him apart. Even before the world officially knew about his relationship with Meghan Markle — you know, before they became the beloved Duke and Duchess of Sussex — there were already whispers of how thoughtful and considerate he could be. Here's a little story that shows just how sweet this red-haired royal can get.
Prince Harry's Secret Artistic Gesture
According to reports from People magazine, back in October 2016, Prince Harry, then 33 years old, made an intriguing purchase. He bought a piece of artwork titled Everybody Needs Somebody To Love, created by the talented British artist Van Donna. Now, here’s the kicker — the price tag was steep, but we’re not exactly sure how much he spent. However, a similar piece by Van Donna sold at Christie’s in 2016 for a cool $5,000. So, this wasn’t just any casual shopping spree.

A Thoughtful Gift for Someone Special
This particular piece was purchased for "an important person" in Harry's life at the time. Interestingly, it was just a few days before the world learned that Harry and the actress from the hit show Suits were officially an item. Coincidence? Maybe not. While it's never been officially confirmed that the gift was indeed for Meghan, who was 37 at the time, the timing sure does make you wonder. Picture this: Harry, quietly browsing through the VIP section of the Walton Fine Arts gallery in London, hand-picking something truly special for the woman who would eventually become his wife. That's romance right there, folks.
A local art collector who spoke to the news outlet gave us a little insight into the moment. "Harry is one of the regulars in the area and often visits the shops and galleries with his bodyguard, kind of in stealth mode," the collector explained. "He spent some time in the gallery, checking out a few pieces, and eventually settled on the Van Donna. He mentioned he was looking for something for ‘an important person.’ It was literally just before anyone heard about Meghan — literally just days before it was announced he was dating her."

A Unique Art Piece with a Heartfelt Message
The artwork Harry chose is a diptych, which means the canvas is split into two distinct pieces. On one side, you see a man and a woman holding hands, symbolizing connection and love. On the other, the words "Everybody Needs Someone To Love" are boldly displayed. Now, here’s where it gets even more romantic: Harry reportedly asked if he could split the diptych apart. "He said, ‘If it’s possible?’" according to the art collector. Imagine that — a prince who not only appreciates art but also wants to make sure the message is just right for the person he cares about.
We can only imagine how Meghan reacted when she saw this thoughtful gift. It’s safe to say she probably loved it. But here’s the real question: is this piece hanging proudly at Nottingham Cottage, their former residence at Kensington Palace? The mystery remains, but one thing’s for sure — Prince Harry knows how to make a grand romantic gesture.
