Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are one of the most talked-about couples in the world, with the news of their future arrival only adding fuel to the fire.
The royal baby is set to arrive this Spring, with members of the public hedging their bets on an April due date.
But who will be chosen as god parents? What will the royals call their future arrival? And just how millennial are Harry and Meghan going with their nursery decor? There are just so many questions.
While preparing to welcome a baby can be stressful work, it looks like the royals are in good hands, with their Interim Private Secretary Samantha Cohen staying with the Sussexes to to help out until their birth.
It was announced last year that Samantha, who has worked for the royal household for 17 years, was leaving, one in a series of departures around Meghan, but according to one source, her role with Harry and Meghan was never a permanent one.
‘Sam was always going to be an interim private secretary until the Duke and Duchess found a permanent one,’ a source reportedly told Vanity Fair.

‘Samantha the Panther’ as she is known by in royal circles has reportedly agreed to stay on with the couple until after the royal baby’s birth - something they are said to be thrilled about.
‘Sam gets on well with Meghan and Harry,’ the source continued. ‘She has agreed to stay on and help them until after they have had the baby and found a full time replacement private secretary so that the hand over will be completely seamless.’
