SYDNEY, Australia — The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, are expecting their first baby in the spring, Kensington Palace confirmed on Monday. Harry and Meghan married in May 2018 in a grand ceremony at Windsor Castle outside London.
No further details on their first expected child, or how Meghan is feeling after the first months of her pregnancy, were immediately provided by the royal family, but the palace said the couple had, “appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public.
”“My warmest congratulations to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the happy news they are expecting a baby in the spring. Wishing them all the best,” Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May said on Monday.

Royal expert Roya Nikkhah told CBS News correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti, who is travelling with the press entourage on a trip by Harry and Meghan to Australia and the South Pacific, that the announcement is an historic moment.
“Meghan is an American, she’s the first mixed-race woman to marry into the royal family — we’re going to have the first mixed-race child in the royal family, and I think the queen is going to be absolutely thrilled,” Nikkhah said.
Kensington Palace said the couple first told the queen and their extended royal family members at cousin Princess Eugenie’s wedding on Friday.
The announcement came as a beaming Duchess Meghan, looking remarkably unfatigued by a 22-hour flight, walked out…
