The Duke of Sussex bought painting called ‘Everybody Needs Somebody to Love’ by artist Van Donna for an “important person” in October 2016, just days before his relationship was revealed to the world by the Sunday Express.

While he did not name Meghan, it is believed the artwork was given to her.

An art collector said he spotted Harry choosing the painting himself from Walton Fine Arts gallery in London.

Speaking to People, he said: “Harry is one of the regulars in the area and regularly goes into the shops and galleries with his bodyguard, kind of in stealth mode.

“He was in the gallery for a little while and liked a few things, then settled on the Van Donna.

“He said 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 going out with her.”

He added: “At the time nobody knew about Meghan Markle, but if it was for her then it’s a very romantic gesture.”

The romantic painting shows a couple walking and holding hands in black and white and features the words ‘Everybody Needs Somebody to Love’.

It is a dyptich, meaning it is made of two parts which are joined.

Meghan, who played Rachel Zane in Suits before she married her prince, was introduced to Harry by a mutual friend in July 2016.

The now Duke and Duchess of Sussex made their first public appearance at the Invictus Games in September 2017, in Toronto, Canada, where Meghan was based to film legal drama Suits.

The couple went on to announce their engagement two months later in November and married at Windsor Castle this year in May.
