Harry and Meghan Are Expecting, Baby Due Spring 2019

[Kataryn]

You are all real sweetcakes! But it's true - with Meghan pregnant it's a bit as when it was Diana with William (so long ago and I was so young), we all held our breath. While with Catherine and William himself it was more like: duty well done, Ma'am, Sir and off they went.

[RJC]

Yep, I'm going away next Wednesday for a week or so...that's the time it will come. Always happens!

[Tarlita]

I reckon right about now Meghan is relaxed with her feet up most of the time. Doria will have butterflies knowing that babies have their own sense of timing and poor poor Harry must be trying really hard to remain calm and poised and acting normally while instead his insides are even rejecting a Big Mac.

After the babies birth I think he will collapse from exhaustion from putting up a good relaxed front to everyone around him.
Doria will be the voice of reason reassuring Meghan.

So you try to proove with saying that somebody has heard something from somebody..... this is anything but serious 😂
Excuse me, but feel reassured that no, absolutely no serious German media would mention details of a baby birth if royal or not, in any way. The German Tv f.e. is funded from tax and far away from sending royal gossip from Uk or anywhere else.
There are of course media like yellow press who like to share speculations and all that silly things, like in Britin or even here in the forum. The sources mentioned above are private twitter accounts and can hardly give proof in a serious scientific manner.
Have a nice day,maybe +1 for Britain? 🙂

TMZ is reporting Dad is not going to the UK because the BRF has iced him out

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.tmz...aby-mom-doria/

Still blaming others for his poor choices. For three years Dad Jr and Sam have proven they will spill personal and malicious tea for the right price. And for other other gossip about the royals going now they can't be trusted to be quiet and not go to the press to tell what they heard. That also makes them security risks. In response to Lettergate Dad showed a reporter Meghan's phone number as proof of no contact from her. What would prevent him or the sibs from blabbing the security details of Frogmore? Doria is staying at Frogmore because she is discreet. Closed mouths get fed.

Basically all TMZ is reporting is something we already know and take as fact due to poor behavior in the past by these people. Its no great surprise.

You asked where it came from. I explained. This isn't science, it's history. Perhaps you should consider that if you continue to meet honest and kind attempts to answer your questions with insulting slap backs, your future questions on this forum are likely to be met with silence or suggestions that you figure it out yourself.

Believe what you want but the information is accurate and was confirmed by other sources once it was leaked.
The birth of a baby in the immediate BRF is news and not gossip. Many international news agencies are and will report on it. The baby itself is not gossip.

I don’t know why anyone even wants to bother with giving these two any space. Nothing has changed in their attitude or behavior and I’m tired of hearing anything about them.

And...water is wet. This lot is way past their expiration date.

Can we please stop bringing anything about Markles unless there is actually new information? Who cares at this point? And no, it does not have anything to do with security risk because it doesn’t even need to get that far in consideration. He’s not there because Meghan doesn’t want him there. And who can blame her.

[Osipi]

I have to agree with you jacqui. Its all ancient history by now and reminds me of an egg salad sandwich that has been left out in very hot weather for three days. Its time for the Markle e(strange)d family to crawl back into the woodwork where they came from.

Its sad that some of her paternal family is so at odds with Meghan but for her own sanity and peace of mind, she's realized that she has to let them go and get on with the positive aspects of her life.

Now... to change the subject....

A press release that is under an embargo is quite a frequent thing. For example, the press will be notified before a royal engagement of what a woman is wearing and the designer and provenance of her jewelry and other interesting facts and with an embargo, the press is asked to not relay any information until said lady steps out in public view at the engagement.

This is what happened with the official information given to the press regarding the birth of Baby Sussex. The information was under an embargo but someone (they say it was German press) inadvertently made the information public rather than heeding the embargo. Its not the first time something like this has happened by any means and most likely could have been an honest mistake.

The official information though is quite valid and has been confirmed by other reporters that had received the same information with the embargo.

Go figure.

I'm guessing May 4 for no personal reason, just my gut feeling, and I'm predicting a girl.

UK press has widely reported that they've been told by Buckingham Palace that it will make an announcement when the duchess is in labor.

I got the impression he was just referring to keeping the press waiting, since they had let the press sit out there for 3 weeks by only telling them July and not giving them a better idea of the timing.

Emily Andrews was on Good Morning Britain yesterday and very specifically stated that BP informed the media that they will send them an email when Meghan is in labor. Out of her own mouth. She also said she was under the impression Meghan's due date is this week.

We are all just waiting.

[Meadow]

My niece is due to have her baby girl tomorrow. I have been wondering who will be first! I think it's a girl and going by how big Meghan was last time we saw her I think the baby will be born sooner rather then later.

If we are all anxious and watching various places where the news would be released that Meghan is in labor, imagine how Meghan herself feels about now. Harry has probably not slept for a while as every time Meghan makes a move in her sleep, it may be a signal that its time. Good thing that the grandma-to-be is there to assure Harry that when the time does come, he'll have plenty of time to act according to plan as the baby won't be born with the very first contraction Meghan has and also make him drink some calming tea and not go bonkers because Doria is boiling hot water.

If she's due this week, that makes her about 13 weeks along at the time of Eugenie's wedding, so makes sense. Either way, it's any day now. Feel like I've saying that for couple of weeks.

My little cousin will be 2 on Tuesday, and she was born (by C-section) a mere 12 minutes before her May 1 due date (11:48 PM on April 30th)

I think it was more than that. I remember several members of the royal family making remarks during that July that seemed to indicate George was late.

At least right now Baby Sussex isn't late yet according to Meghan's late April or May time frame.

I confess that I'm starting to feel a bit anxious. I remember we all felt this way with Charlotte, since everyone believed she would be born in April. It was...one more day and...nothing...one more day and...nothing...it was fun and frustrating at the same time.

I am too. I am about to have a meltdown. I am ready for that sweet baby to get here.

Well it will be in the next two weeks. I am hoping by this weekend but Baby Sussex could just as easily be a May baby. Not long now either way.
