    But, while we were all distracted by the royal PDA, we were missing an even more serious relationship milestone for the couple: Harry hung out with Meghan's mom.

    And just look at the casual boredom on his face. This is not a guy meeting his girlfriend's mom for the first time. He's not on edge.

    Nothing has shown how serious these two are more than this. Next, we'd love some pictures of Meghan hanging out with Harry's family, please.
