And just five months after their fairytale wedding, Harry and Meghan got Yahoo readers excited for another royal baby, as they announced they’re expecting their first child in spring 2019 . The news came as the couple embarked on their whirlwind tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand .

As with every official duty or family moment, it’s also the opportunity for the royals to show off their style credentials.
