Meghan Markle Had the Same Specific Pregnancy Craving With Both Lilibet and Archie

And it's surprisingly healthy.

While most pregnant women are eating pints of Ben & Jerry's ice cream and jars of pickles (or both, combined) up until their due dates, Meghan Markle's craving when she was pregnant apparently looked a little different than the norm.

Over the weekend, the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, had a double date night with singer Michael Bublé and his wife, Luisana Lopilato, at Vij's, an Indian restaurant in Vancouver. And it was there that Markle shared her former pregnancy craving that wasn't your stereotypical choice with the owner and head chef, Vikram Vij.

“Meghan said that during her pregnancy, she had eaten only Indian food and I told her it was the best thing for her," Vij shared with Hello!, adding that the Sussexes "are amazing, extremely beautiful, and very friendly." Meghan and Harry have two children together—a son, Archie, 5, and a daughter, Lilibet, 3.

Markle and Harry are currently in Canada for the 2025 Invictus Games and left the kids at home. As for why they didn't bring Archie and Lilibet along for the big event, royal editor Emily Nash offered her opinion during a conversation with ITV royal journalist Lizzie Robinson on Hello! Magazine's A Right Royal podcast.

"Given the fact that the children are able to live a much more private life than their cousins...for example, because their roles are different," Nash explained. "I don't see why they would put them in that arena at this point."

Robinson added, "They have sort of kept the children incredibly private. I know we saw snippets of them in the Netflix docuseries, but really, the children have lived an incredibly private life."

Markle previously hinted that Archie and Lilibet wouldn't be present at this year's Invictus Games during an impromptu speech at the Family and Friends reception that took place ahead of the opening ceremony. "It is my entire pleasure and complete honor to introduce to the stage my husband, the father of our very sweet, excited children who are cheering you on from California, Prince Harry, founder of the Invictus Games, the Duke of Sussex," she said.
