The Prince and Princess of Wales Celebrated with Joy After Harry Revealed Meghan’s Pregnancy
Six years ago, Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank in a memorable ceremony at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, where the royal family gathered to celebrate. Among the attendees were Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who took the opportunity to share exciting personal news during the family event.
In his memoir Spare, Harry recalls pulling Prince William aside after a reception to tell him that he and Meghan were expecting their first child. William’s response was a heartfelt moment, as he smiled and insisted they share the news with Kate immediately. Both William and Kate reacted warmly, offering big smiles and heartfelt congratulations.
Just seven months later, Meghan gave birth to their son, Archie, in May 2019, choosing to forgo the traditional hospital photo opportunity in favour of privacy. Despite the ongoing tensions between the Sussexes and the rest of the royal family, Harry’s relationship with his cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, has remained strong. Sources say the cousins continue to be close, offering support through difficult family dynamics.
Harry’s bond with his cousins traces back to childhood, as their mothers, Princess Diana and Sarah Ferguson, shared a close friendship that connected the younger generation. Despite the rift with the wider royal family, the connection with Beatrice and Eugenie has endured, highlighting the strength of these family bonds.
