LONDON (UK) – Britain’s Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are expecting their second child, as told by a spokesperson for the couple on Sunday.
Harry, 36, and Meghan, 39, withdrew from royal duties in January 2020 and moved with their first son Archie to Southern California.
“We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are overjoyed to be expecting their second child,” the spokesperson said.
The announcement, which came on Valentine’s Day was accompanied by a black and white photograph of a visibly pregnant Meghan lying on grass. The photograph has one hand on her stomach and her head resting on the smiling prince’s leg. The photo was taken by longtime friend and photographer Misan Harriman.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said that Queen Elizabeth and her husband Prince Philip, Harry’s father Prince Charles and the whole family were “delighted” and wished the couple well.
The couple married in a glittering ceremony in 2018 that captured the world’s attention.
