When the world found out about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's pregnancy on Monday, October 15, it was like the ultimate surprise party. Fans around the globe were buzzing with excitement, but guess what? It turns out Meghan's inner circle was just as caught off guard as the rest of us. Let me break this down for you.
Here’s the deal: Meghan, now 37 and expecting her first child, is reportedly between 12 to 15 weeks pregnant. That means baby royal must have been conceived sometime between June and early July. Crazy, right? This timeline suggests that Harry and Meghan were only married for a few weeks before they started trying for a baby. For context, their wedding was in May. Talk about diving headfirst into married life!
Surprise, Surprise: Friends Were Taken Aback
According to a source close to Meghan, her friends knew she wanted to start a family soon but weren’t expecting it to happen so quickly. “Her friends knew she was trying and that she wasn’t going to wait long because she’s older,” the source told People. “But everyone was so surprised it happened so quickly.” Even though the timing shocked her inner circle, they weren’t completely in the dark. Some were starting to get suspicious, the source added.

Meghan’s best friend, Jessica Mulroney, is there to lend a helping hand.
Jessica, who is also Meghan’s stylist, shared on Instagram that she and her husband, Canadian TV host Ben Mulroney, had arrived in “beautiful” Australia.
