To catch up on all things royal family, including Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton, make sure you check out our Royal Hub. We’ve got you covered.
It has been six months since the world first learned that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are expecting their first child together.
The Kensington Palace’s announcement, last October, simply told fans that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are “expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019”. Since then, it has become known that the due date is somewhere between late April (as in… right now) and early May.
Since we haven’t seen Meghan Markle in public for over a month now, and Doria Ragland – Meghan Markle’s mother – was recently seen arriving in England, speculation swirled that baby Sussex is already here.

I reckon she's close, if not overdue. They announced it mid-October, ie more than six months ago. I would have thought they'd have held off announcing as long as possible given her age and the increased risks. It's not necessary for William to be in the country, just Harry. And given the short distance between Windsor and London, he probably decided the day of Anzac Day to attend knowing he could rush back if needed. Neither of those events are a sign that the baby is weeks away.
It wouldn't surprise me if the baby arrives and the first we get is an official post on twitter from Buckingham Palace after a couple of days, followed closely by photos from a professional shoot similar to those from the engagement.
Or maybe she’s already had the baby. It wouldn’t be a huge deal for Harry to leave for a few hours to attend a ceremony, and William could have visited already before he left. It’s all just speculation, isn’t it. Why don’t we all just wait for an announcement.
I think this is more likely. To be honest I think they are trying to hide the fact she was probably pregnant at the wedding? It all seems a bit suss to me. Cloak and daggers when it doesn't need to be.
Nah I doubt they’ll want the media backlash if it turns out they’ve been hiding the baby for weeks, particularly if Harry has been out in public since it’s birth without telling anyone. The queen wouldn’t let them breach protocol that far. I’m sure they will tell the press a day or two after it’s born. Probably just blocked out Harry’s diary for the last week or two of her pregnancy. Also who cares if William is in the country when it’s born, doubt Meghan wants her BIL at the birth. He just needs to be there for the christening.
It’s only cloak and daggers if you decide it is. Otherwise it’s just a woman who wasn’t hiding a pregnancy at her wedding and hasn’t had a baby yet.
