Buckingham Palace also released a statement wishing the couple well, saying: “Her Majesty, Duke of Edinburgh, Prince of Wales and entire family [are] ‘delighted’ and wish them well.”
The palace also confirmed that family had been told before today’s announcement.
It comes after Meghan shared the heartbreaking news of her miscarriage in November last year.
In an essay for the New York Times, she wrote: "I knew, as I clutched my firstborn child, that I was losing my second."
Meghan was praised for the ‘brave’ move she took in penning the essay, with many women who have gone through the same thing claiming it makes them feel ‘less alone’.
