Former U.S. actress Meghan and Harry married
last May and announced in October that they were expecting their
first child in the Spring of 2019 but gave no specific details.
During a chat with some of the large crowd that turned out for
their visit to Birkenhead in northern England on Monday, Meghan,
37, revealed she was six months pregnant, suggesting the latest
addition to the British royal family would be due sometime in
April.
However, Meghan and Harry, Queen Elizabeth's grandson, do not
know whether the future seventh-in-line to the throne will be a
boy or a girl and it would be a "surprise", media reported.
During their trip to Birkenhead, the couple's first joint
engagement of the year, they viewed a new statue erected to mark
the centenary of the death of World War One poet Wilfred Owen
before visiting a number of local community organizations.
Local resident Helen O'Toole, a mother of seven, said Meghan had
asked her for some advice.
"I said ‘breathe and take anything that they offer you’ and she
just clutched her little baby bump and laughed. It was really
lovely," she told Reuters.
