Prince Harry reportedly dated model Sarah Ann Macklin while wooing Meghan Markle

Prince Harry was busy dating a ravishing English model while he was pursuing Meghan Markle. The Prince had a number of dates with Burberry model Sarah Ann Macklin while dating Markle whenever she visited London.

Friends of Macklin, who looks a lot like Meghan Markle, told the Daily Mail that Harry "bombarded" her with texts when he met her at a private party just like he did with Meghan.

Sarah Macklin reportedly met the Prince at a party in June, although whether Meghan Markle knows about the other brunette is anyone's guess.

But the dalliance reportedly elicited a jealous reaction from David Gandy, an underwear model for Mark and Spencer, and boyfriend of Macklin. The fling is reportedly known to all her friends.

According to OK magazine, Macklin picked Harry over David Gandy and began going on a few dates. Friends of Macklin confirmed that they were introduced at a social gathering and the Prince made a "beeline" for her.

Macklin was reportedly flattered by all the attention, and everything was kept a secret.

The Daily Mail reported that they got along but were very different in their habits. Macklin is reportedly into clean living and non-drinking while the Prince seemed very non-committal and things reportedly never took off. The fling fizzled out before the Prince went for a month to Africa.

According to the report, Macklin has been signed into a leading agency called Select Model management. She came to the limelight with a photo shoot for Esquire magazine in 2012, wearing a lace bra, as per reports.

She has worked with brands like Burberry, Abercrombie and Fitch and Matthew Willamson.
