Harry, Meghan, and a baby makes three! On Oct. 15, news broke that the newly minted Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, and her handsome husband, Prince Harry, will be expecting their first child! Of course, diehard royal fans were left with one burning question: When is Meghan due? Well, thanks to confirmation from Kensington Palace, we now know that their little bundle of joy will be arriving in the spring of 2019.

“Their Royal Highness The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019,” Kensington Palace announced on Twitter. “Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding May and are delighted to able to share this happy news with the public.”

 

Naturally, hundreds of people have flocked to the post to share their love and well wishes with the happy couple. “Oh my God!! Congratulations Harry and Meghan, you’ll make amazing parents,” one user commented. “I have been waiting and praying on this!” added another.

While Meghan and Harry have only been married for five months, the 37-year old’s pregnancy is hardly a shock. After all, just one month following their nuptials, sources claimed that they were ready to start a family. “Having children is definitely a priority,” an insider revealed to Us Weekly in early June. “She and Harry want to start a family right away — and she’ll start trying as soon as she can.” 

Of course, those closest to the pair have not been able to contain their excitement — especially Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland. “She’s very excited for Meghan to become a mother,” an additional insider told the publication.
