This is too much
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced the news that they were expecting a royal baby in Spring 2019, just a few months ago, with predictions already made for baby names and god parents.
Since the announcement, the couple have voiced their happiness at their future arrival, with Meghan telling fans that they were excited to ‘join the parenting club’ while Prince Harry let slip a nickname for the future royal baby - ‘our little bump’.
Three months and a lot of baby prep later, and they're still letting details slip, with Prince Harry expressing his excitement at his future baby just this week.
While holding a roundtable discussion with young leaders from the Commonwealth at London’s Lancaster House, taking over the role of Commonwealth Youth Ambassador from Queen Elizabeth, he couldn’t help but reference his future arrival and his concern for their future.
‘As someone who is about to become a father, I am acutely aware of our shared responsibility to make this world more resilient and its inhabitants more accountable for the next generation,’ he announced to the room. ‘The only way to see real progress is not by chance, it’s by change. Let’s get to work.’
Not long now until we meet the royal baby!
