Prince William is to marry long-term girlfriend Kate Middleton next year, Clarence House has said.
William, second in line to the throne, will marry in London next spring or summer and live in north Wales where he is serving with the RAF.
The couple, who are both 28, became engaged in October during a private holiday in Kenya.
They began dating eight years ago while studying at St Andrews University in Fife, where they shared a house.
The royal engagement was announced in a brief statement released by Clarence House.
It said: "The Prince of Wales is delighted to announce the engagement of Prince William to Miss Catherine Middleton.
"The wedding will take place in the Spring or Summer of 2011, in London. Further details about the wedding day will be announced in due course.
"Prince William has informed The Queen and other close members of his family.
"Prince William has also sought the permission of Miss Middleton's father."
