Why such a big deal? Well, Bonas, 24, isn’t the first lady to be invited for such a fun weekend. Kate Middleton herself visited the area numerous times before Prince William popped the question in November 2010. The estate is also the site of the royal family Christmas celebrations.

Harry, 29, and Bonas were first linked in June 2012, when they attended a London party together with friends. “He loves her — they’re so compatible,” a source previously revealed to Us. “Cressie is very laid-back and he likes that. If all goes well, I’m 100 percent sure they’ll be engaged next year.”
