In November, 33-year-old Prince Harry announced his engagement to 36-year-old actress Meghan Markle after a year and a half of dating.

While His Royal Highness is certainly still young, he's already had a pretty incredible life, which is only set to continue when the couple get married in May.

Aside from his high-profile relationship, Prince Harry travels the world - both with the royal family and as part of this charity efforts - and often competes in Champagne-filled sporting tournaments.

His life hasn't been without hardships, either. He and brother Prince William both struggled with their mental health after the death of their mother, Princess Diana, in 1997.
