Meghan Markle has been speculated to be pregnant with her and Prince Harry’s second baby for quite a while now. Although royal pregnancies are never hidden from the public, fans just couldn’t wait for an announcement and take the liberty to figure things out themselves.
Now, royal commentator Juliet Rieden said that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may announce the second pregnancy when they return from their six-week break in the US. She even went on to say that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may welcome baby number two in 2020.
“I am hoping it’s going to be another Harry and Meghan baby. They have to get their skates on – they told us they want two and I think they might have another one next year,” she said. “Who knows, she might even be pregnant now, we don’t know.”
A previous report claimed that Meghan Markle is four months pregnant and that she’s expecting a baby girl this time around. According to OK! magazine, Prince Harry and his wife were very excited to learn that they will be adding another member to their family.
“So, when Meghan learned that she was expecting just a few months after giving birth to Archie, she and Harry were ecstatic,” a source said. “Harry has already picked her name: it’s going to be Diana, after his late mom.”
Before the insider claimed that Meghan Markle is pregnant, royal fans have already been convinced that the Duchess of Sussex is expecting baby number two. However, it is worth noting that Prince Harry, Meghan, and the Kensington Palace have never addressed this pregnancy rumors as of this writing.
Meanwhile, royal pregnancies are quite tricky. When a married female royal is not yet pregnant, she will be bombarded with questions about when she will be expecting. But, if one of them is actually pregnant, she still receives backlash for it.
On the online forum site Quora, a lot of royal fans shared their negative reactions about Meghan Markle getting pregnant so quickly. Some said that she should have waited at least a year after their wedding to have a baby.
“For me, I was initially put off by the news of Meghan Markle’s pregnancy,” one wrote. “It was only a short time ago that Markle and Harry got married; compounded by hearing about them every waking second in the news, I was still getting accustomed to them functioning as a royal couple. Ideally, I would have liked for them to have waited a year before having a family because they still need time to get to know one another.”
