Before announcing this second pregnancy, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry preferred to wait, preferring to hide it. At the bottom of this hesitation was the trauma of the July miscarriage.
On February 14, a most symbolic date, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry announced that they were expecting a second child. But why did Meghan Markle first decide to hide her second pregnancy? We were informed by a source close to the royal couple, who gave us some elements of an answer on February 18th.
In reality, the American actress did not expect to get pregnant again so quickly after her July miscarriage. She and Prince Harry took a long time to relax about this new pregnancy. Stressed and marked by the miscarriage, they preferred to wait until the second pregnancy was at a later stage, lest something happen again.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been waiting and wanting this second pregnancy. “They would like a brother or sister for Archie,” had confided the royal expert Katie Nicholl at the dawn of this year 2021, “they will do anything for it.” Lady Diana’s son and his wife are the happy parents of little Archie and have “always wanted him to have a sibling close in age”, according to the same source.
Archie, who will celebrate his 2nd birthday on May 6th, has a central place in the announcement of this future royal baby. “We confirm that Archie is about to become a big brother. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to be expecting their second child”, indeed announced the couple who now live in Santa-Barbara, California, in an official statement.
They are eager to share this happiness with a second child
“These are very happy parents who are eager to share this happiness with a second child,” added a source close to royalty to People. They are both looking forward to having their little family.” The former star of the Suits series will have the joy of being the mother of two children on her 40th birthday, which she will celebrate in August 2021. As for this royal baby, he will certainly be born in the United States, unlike his older brother Archie, marking a little more the break of Sussex with the Crown.
