Good news on the horizon? Even though Duchess Meghan (née Markle) and her husband, Prince Harry, have been dealing with a great deal of negativity as of late, a royal expert told Life & Style exclusively that the pair will likely announce a pregnancy in the coming weeks. “I think that Meghan will have a baby very soon,” Princess Diana’s former assistant, Paul Burrell, predicted while promoting his new documentary Princess Diana’s ‘Wicked’ Stepmother.

“A. The clock’s ticking. B. She wants at least two children and C. Have you not noticed the way she knots everything in front of her belly and tries to hide her tummy? Could she already be pregnant? If she’s pregnant they’ll have to call it Angola,” he continued, referring to the country in central Africa that Meghan, 38, Harry, 35, and their son, Archie, visited on their first official tour as a family

“Watch this space. It won’t be long before you hear that Meghan is having another baby,” Paul assured. As for Prince William and Duchess Kate (née Middleton) having another child, Paul has similar thoughts. “That’d be four babies for Kate and William. It wouldn’t surprise me if Kate and Meghan were pregnant at the same time next year,” he reasoned.

Given how much Meghan and Harry have endured for their sonwe have no doubt that they would continue to do so for baby No. 2. “Harry would move heaven and Earth for Meghan and he’s going out of his way to cheer her up,” a separate source told Life & Style.

“I have to admit, the pressure of being a royal and the bad press they’ve endured has put some strain on their marriage but they’re trying to stay strong,” the insider continued, adding, “Neither Meghan or Harry grew up in a traditionally stable family, and while generally speaking they had a happy childhood, it’s important to them for Archie to see his parents in a loving relationship.”
