Have Harry and Meghan moved on from their matchmaker? Harry's childhood pal Violet von Westenholz who introduced him to his future wife 8 years ago seems to have disappeared from their lives By Cameron Roy Published: 03:31 EDT, 26 October 2024 | Updated: 03:31 EDT, 26 October 2024 e-mail 3 View comments How Prince Harry and Meghan Markle got together is a story that has been told by the couple many times, most importantly in their six-episode Netflix series and again in the blockbuster memoir Spare. In the documentary, the pair gushed over their immediate connection and, in Spare, Harry wrote he was drawn to Meghan instantly due to her 'angelic face' and 'wild joy'. The smitten couple were put in contact through a mutual friend, and after years of theories of who the mysterious royal matchmaker was, it was confirmed in Spare that it was Harry's childhood pal Violet Von Westenholz.
But despite her role as Cupid in their love story, Von Westenholz's relationship with the couple seems to have cooled in recent years with her not having mentioned them since 2018. Could it be that the person who introduced Harry to the 'captain of his soul' now plays only a little part in their lives?
