It has been quite a challenging for the royal family. Amid the scandals, controversies and rifts, some psychics have boldly declared their predictions for 2020. 

American psychic Betsey Lewis revealed on her website that Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, might die even before the world welcomes 2020. Though Queen Elizabeth's husband is 98 years old, his death will reportedly still shock everyone especially if it happens close to the holidays.

The news comes as Prince Philip apparently suffered a wobble in early autumn. Sources claimed that the Duke of Edinburgh felt a lot less energetic while spending his retirement years in Sandringham. In 2018, Buckingham Palace confirmed that Queen Elizabeth's other half underwent a hip surgery at the King Edward VII Hospital.

The source also said that Prince Philip's mind is still as sharp as ever. In fact, he facilitated the meeting between his sons Prince Charles and Prince Andrew due to the latter's sex scandal. Some royals followers on social media speculate that there was also one other reason Prince Charles rushed to his father's estate upon his return to India last November, as the Duke of Edinburgh was apparently not in the best of health.

However, according to Reader's Digest, the public might know beforehand if Prince Philip is on his deathbed. Apparently, even Prince Philip is aware of the details surrounding Operation Forth Bridge in the event that his health suffers. 

Meanwhile, another psychic predicted that Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, will be pregnant with her second child. Sally Morgan, who used to be do readings for Princess Diana, told New Idea that Prince Harry and his wife might be expecting another baby by the end of 2020. 

Morgan also said that the Sussex pair will be visiting Africa more often in 2020 for both their royal duties and private trips. Some of these trips will be quite low-key.

The challenges Meghan faces with the British tabloid press will not be over in 2020. She and Prince Harry will continue to experience the pressures, especially for Meghan who is still getting used to her prominence as a royal. 

The Duchess of Sussex might also introduce charities to the Sussex Royal Foundation that relates to performing arts or drama. She could also consider doing another Vogue issue in 2020.  

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are currently spending the holidays in the United States. They are expected back in London before the New Year.
