Another royal baby is on the way, as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced they’re expecting their first child in Spring 2019 – five months after their wedding.

The news came hours after the couple landed in Sydney for their 16-day royal tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Kensington Palace have said that Meghan is in “good health” and has had her 12-week scan.

Most couples wait for the 12-week mark to start telling friends and family, so when did Harry and Meghan share their happy news with theirs?

The Duke and Duchess told the royal family on Friday, when they attended Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s wedding.

Kensington Palace say the Queen, Duke is Edinburgh, Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are “delighted” for the couple.

Severe morning sickness (Hyperemesis gravidarum) meant that the Duchess of Cambridge announced her pregnancies early, for all three of her children.
