Meghan Markle and Prince Harry DIDN’T announce their baby news at Princess Eugenie’s wedding
MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry confirmed that they're expecting their first child yesterday, just days after Meghan sparked pregnancy rumours at Princess Eugenie's wedding.
But while eagle-eyed fans correctly guessed the couple's big news, there's been another rumour going around that may not be true.
Meghan, 37, and 34-year-old Harry were thought to have told the Queen about Meghan's pregnancy at Eugenie's nuptials last Friday.
It was understood that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made the announcement during the ceremony at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.
Pictures showed Harry speaking to Her Majesty, 92, fuelling speculation that this was the moment that he broke the news.
However, a source has now told that this wasn't the case at all.
Instead, the Queen and Prince Philip, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall and Eugenie and new husband Jack Brooksbank already knew about Meghan's pregnancy.
Apparently, they just hadn't seen them in person, so this was the first time they could congratulate them.
It's not known whether Kate Middleton and Prince William knew ahead of time.
Kensington Palace announced the pregnancy on its official Twitter page, with a message reading: "Their Royal Highnesses 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.
"Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public."
The couple are currently on a royal tour of Australia, New Zealand, Tonga and Fiji, where Meghan showed her first hint of a baby bump in Sydney earlier today.
