Prince Harry to buy $27M mansion for Meghan Markle?

Prince Harry is reportedly planning to buy a $27 million home for Meghan Markle.
The 34-year-old royal has only been dating the 35-year-old ‘Suits’ actress for eight months, but it seems things are getting serious between the pair as the flame-haired hunk is believed to be eyeing up the impressive abode.
The property in the Pacific Palisades neighbourhood in Los Angeles is owned by ‘Legally Blonde’ actress Reese Witherspoon and is hidden away from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood and comes with it’s own security features.
A source told Woman’s Day: "It’s hidden from prying eyes and has its own guardhouse for security.
"It’s not as big as the palaces Harry has known all his life, but he’s excited to have somewhere he and Meghan can call home when they visit the US."
The couple would have plenty of space in the five-bedroom mansion, which is complete with five bathrooms and views of the Pacific Ocean.
There would also been room for the couple’s cars with a two-car garage and plenty of room for guests to park
Reese, 40, originally paid almost half the asking price of $12.7 million, however, the increased price is for the renovation works she carried out on the building, which dates back to 1949.
Meanwhile, Meghan was recently spotted wearing a 14 karat gold necklace with her and the flame-haired royal’s initials on whilst out in Toronto, Canada, which was made by Los Angeles-based designer Maya Brenner.
A spokesman for the company confirmed the actress was in fact wearing one of their pieces.
The couple have also proved their devotion for one another by sporting matching beaded bracelets.
And Harry is said to be "absolutely besotted" with the actress, who he met in May.
A friend of the star said: "It’s just another sign of how head-over-heels he is about her.
"He is absolutely besotted. We’ve never seen him so happy – it’s great."
