After Years of Waiting, Prince William's Engagement Announced, William 'Extremely Excited,' PM Says

"Waity Katie" must wait no more. A mere eight years since the couple met, Britain's Prince William is officially engaged to Kate Middleton, royal officials said today.

Prince William, 28, asked Middleton, also 28, to marry him while the two were on vacation in Kenya last month, the statement said.

The Queen said she is "absolutely delighted" for the couple, Buckingham Palace said today.

Congratulations!
