Yes, it's lovely news! A photographer posted this image on Instagram announcing it.

Lovely news. They looked so happy in the announcement photo.

Fluffycloudland77 · 14/02/2021 20:08

Is it news? They said they wanted privacy.

Should we be discussing something so personal with her history of miscarriage?.

Taking into account that she's lying flat on her back, that bump is fairly well established. I'm guessing the pregnancy is fairly well on.

Wasn't there a story ages ago saying they only wanted one child because of the burden on the world? Or was that the press lying again?

StealthPolarBear · 14/02/2021 20:12

Lovely news :)

JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows · 14/02/2021 20:13

Aw how lovely! Lovely picture too. I wonder when she is due

Covidcorvid · 14/02/2021 20:15

I’m applying my professional midwifery judgement, Admittedly from one photo, and wouldn’t be surprised if she’s about 6 months pregnant.

Standrewsschool · 14/02/2021 20:20

Lovely picture. They look happy and relaxed in it.

She looks quite far on. Lovely news for her. Hope all goes well.

mywifi · 14/02/2021 20:29

I reckon she's 6-7 months.

They said something along those lines, yes, and that they wanted privacy but seem to like announcing things publically (both H&M). However hypocritical, wishing them all the best, I do think aside from their preaching I think they are both great people and a lovely couple- and I'm sure Archie will be a great big bro!
Plonque · 14/02/2021 20:39

They didn't say they'd only have one, they said they'd have no more than two.

Rtmhwales · 14/02/2021 20:42

You can want privacy and still announce things publicly.. wanting privacy is more about wanting to keep the things you want to be able to keep to yourself .. private. They're still allowed to release this news to the world even if they want privacy .. especially considering it was bound to be found out eventually regardless. This allows them to release it at a time and in a way of their choosing. The two concepts aren't mutually exclusive. I'm happy for them.

EllasAuntie · 15/02/2021 07:35

Completely mixed messages from these two.
On the one hand they press charges for invasion of privacy, on the other they publish a clearly stylised shot of them. All it needed was a worded announcement.

I feel so sorry for Harry because it's as if he's being swept along in this melee where everything that is done puts him in the firing line for criticism. I just don't think he 'sees' it all like most people do. He's lost his judgement.

Congratulations to them bothFlowers they look very happy.

Lovely news Flowers

Happy for them Flowers

Fluffycloudland77 · 15/02/2021 07:47

@EllasAuntie Hard to monetise a brand and have privacy though isn’t it?. You need to give out enough to keep the proles engaged with the brand.

I wonder what name they’ll land this one with?.

Eminybob · 15/02/2021 07:56

What lovely news and gorgeous picture.

I can’t believe the negativity from some people.
Of course they want to make an announcement, like a lot of people do on social media. It doesn’t mean they don’t want to have privacy, they are just controlling the timing of the announcement before it gets leaked/becomes too obvious to hide.

I really like them both and wish them all the best.
