Almost four months after they got married, rumors have been running rife that Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, is expecting her first child with husband, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex.
Now, her mother, Doria Ragland, fuels those pregnancy rumors after she was reportedly spotted taking regular baby-care classes at the Cradle Company in Pasadena, Los Angeles, according to the Daily Star. Through the course, she has learned vital nannying skills, including first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
"Two of the teachers, Brandi and Hannah, are training Doria at her home half an hour away to avoid attracting unwanted attention," an unnamed source told the news outlet, adding that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry want to avoid hiring additional staff once their first child arrives. "The thought of having her mum move in with them and take on the role of baby nurse is the best possible solution to that," the source explained.
Due to that, the 62-year-old social worker is doing all she can to help her daughter and son-in-law take good care of their future child. She already specializes in prenatal yoga and has learned everything from basic baby care to breastfeeding and lactation consultancy.
Once she completes the baby-care training, Doria Ragland will reportedly move to the United Kingdom although no exact date has yet been set yet. The source added: "With her new qualification and training to add to her role of grandmother, she will be ready to give her daughter some very hands-on help inside the Palace once the new Prince or Princess arrives."
Rumors that Meghan Markle might be pregnant surfaced after she was reportedly spotted with her growing baby bump during a friend's wedding in early August. The "Suits" star, who is reportedly in its early stages of pregnancy at the time, is said to be craving sweets, including chocolate, ice cream, and a smoothie.
While many fans are happy about the pregnancy rumors, a source close to the former film and television actress has debunked the report and stressed that they are not yet ready to have a baby, the Hollywood Life reported. Instead, the two are currently enjoying life as a newly wedded couple.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry started dating in 2016 after they met on a blind date set up by a mutual friend. After years of dating, they tied the knots in a lavish ceremony at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle in May 2018.
