They seem like such nice people so I am genuinely happy for them this morning. I was quite excited when I heard the news.

SillySallySingsSongs · 15/10/2018 09:04

Feel a little bad for Eugenie. A baby is wonderful news, of course, but I wish they would have delayed the confirmation for another week or so while Eugenie was still having her moment in the spotlight.

They had to, if it's true she won't be going to Tonga or Fiji

AngryAttackKittens · 15/10/2018 09:08

I was going to say, aren't they headed to some areas where there's Zika? If so she can't go.

costacoffeecup · 15/10/2018 09:08

I think it will be April not February, I'm due end of Jan and my bump is massive, there's no way she's nearly six months gone from the pictures of her last week!

Ah a new baby is always a wonderful thing.

I am so happy for the couple- especially Harry, he is my favourite out of the lot of them.

He has always looked like fun, someone you could enjoy a beery night out with!

Also, after everything he has been through at a young age- parents divorce and of course, the death of his mother- he totally deserves all the happiness in the world!

Stoopid phone. Sorry about strange post there

OnceUponATimeInAmerica · 15/10/2018 09:14

Maybe it came out at the wedding because once the cost was off, it was too obvious to pretend otherwise?

I used to be as slim as Meghan with very strong and and didn't show at all until I was about 24 weeks with my first. Now I just look about 24 weeks pregnant all the time.

RiverTam · 15/10/2018 09:14

awwww, that's nice news. Never used to care two straws about the royals but I have mellowed in my old age.

Bezalelle · 15/10/2018 09:15

I'm pleased for her. I'm the same age and desperate for a wean.

OkMaybeNot · 15/10/2018 09:15

Ahh yes I forgot about the zika risk. That'll be why they announced now then.

Frazzled2207 · 15/10/2018 09:15

With just having arrived in Australia there would be a lot of speculation if she was showing a bit/avoiding alcohol/avoiding Fiji altogether so it's the best time to announce it with the wedding out of the way.

Chanelprincess · 15/10/2018 09:16

If it's true she won't be going to Tonga or Fiji

Why?

BertramKibbler · 15/10/2018 09:17

Zika!

ApolloandDaphne · 15/10/2018 09:18

How lovely. I agree that once she was at the wedding there was a lot of speculation and they decided to come clean. I am sure Eugenie was delighted to have this news shared at her wedding. Why wouldn't any reasonable person be glad of the news of a baby wedding or no wedding?

bluetongue · 15/10/2018 09:18

Now I don’t feel so silly about working out this morning on the bus to work that there’s probably a 50% chance the baby will have blue eyes and wondering what it will look like Grin

SillySallySingsSongs · 15/10/2018 09:19

I think by announcing it now there is a week of paper headlines before the Invictus Games start.

Harry will be really keen that whilst it's on its them attending that which is getting headlines rather than speculation. It's something that he is so so passionate about, he would want it to be about the veterans achievements not about their private matters.

OnceUponATimeInAmerica · 15/10/2018 09:25

cost = coat
and = abs

Thanks autocorrect.

specialsubject · 15/10/2018 09:28

Blimey - well spotted, mn! Eugenie is hopefully an adult and got married in a different day to this announcement, can't see why she would get playground jealous at more happy news.

wtffgs2 · 15/10/2018 09:33

Oh good! Not like there's anything else to worry about next April! Hmm

Disclaimer: I think any couple having a baby is lovely news for them and their family. However, I really don't want daily updates on this.

SputnikBear · 15/10/2018 09:34

I bet she goes into “premature” labour. Still convinced she looked pregnant at the wedding.

FlamingJuno · 15/10/2018 09:34

KP have said there's no change to the planned schedule and they have taken advice about zika.

SillySallySingsSongs · 15/10/2018 09:34

So don't read them then 🤷🏼‍♀️

SillySallySingsSongs · 15/10/2018 09:35

Well it would mean she is over 5 months, so no she wasn't.

MiddlingMum · 15/10/2018 09:39

All babies are exciting and special, none more so than any other.

I hope all pregnancies go well.
