We know what Meghan Markle could learn from Kate Middleton, but let's flip the script, shall we?

We're sure there have already been plenty of opportunities for Prince Harry to learn something from his older brother Prince William, and when it comes to the romance department, it's probably no different.

Harry's clearly no noob at the love game, but things seem to be heating up pretty quickly between him and the Suits star, so who better to show him the ropes of tackling a public relationship (and maybe even marriage someday) with the royal spotlight than William? Exactly.

So here are some dating cues Harry can take from his married older bro...

1. How to Date a Commoner: One of the clearest tips Harry can call on from his older bro is how to help his lady assimilate into the royal lifestyle. William famously chose to wed a commoner, as opposed to a woman with royal lineage, and while that only added more interest to their love story, it cannot be ignored that it's probably a lot to take in for a girl. Wills can help Harry navigate through this the best way possible so that he and his girl can sail through the changes.

2. Sharing Interests: We've spotted the Duchess of Cambridge alongside her famous hubby at numerous events, but it wasn't always because of civic duties. These two lovebirds have openly shared hobbies and interests with each other, so perhaps we'll see Harry at some of Markle's events?

3. Privacy Is the Best Policy: Obviously, William has kept most of the details of his relationship with Kate private, as it should be. Less is more when it comes to speaking about your personal relationships with the public, so aside from cute remarks about their dynamic and the love they have for each other, keep it between you two.

4. Let Her Shine: It's no secret that Harry will probably get most of the limelight considering he's royal, but William has done a fantastic job at stepping aside and giving Kate credit where credit is due, and letting her shine in her own right. With Markle's philanthropy and her activism, there will be numerous opportunities for Harry to give his ladylove the spotlight.

5. Take Time for Yourselves: With such busy schedules, it'll be difficult to keep the flame going strong, so it's really up to Harry and Meghan to put in effort and make their relationship a priority. Between their civic duties, travels, kids and everyday life, it would seem nearly impossible for Will and Kate to take time off for themselves, but they still manage to do it, and that's crucial.
