They already tried with Archie but it couldn’t be. This time they have everything more tied since they can decide freely outside the protocol of the British royal family. Prince Harry, 36, and his wife, Meghan Markle, 39, are finalizing all the details to fulfill their wish for their second daughter to be born at home.
Although there are still a few weeks until the exam is due, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are planning every last detail of how they want the arrival of their baby to be in the world. And this time, unlike what happened with Archie, it is only they who have the last word. Meghan Markle wants to give birth in her own home surrounded by an all-female medical team.
If there are no complications in the final stretch of pregnancy, the new daughter of the Dukes of Sussex will be born in the Montecito mansion, in California, where they live
This desire to give birth at home has been made known by a source close to the couple to the publication PageSix. Thus, if there are no complications in the final stretch of pregnancy, the new daughter of the Dukes of Sussex will be born in the Montecito mansion, in California, where they live.
When she was pregnant with her first-born, Markle already planned to have a natural birth at Frogmore Cottage, the house she shared with Harry on the grounds of Windsor, near London. He also had a medical team for that day. But his wish was thwarted when the scheduled date was pushed back a week. “Meghan already planned to give birth in Frogmore Cottage when she was pregnant with Archie, but in the end her doctors recommended that she go to the private Portland hospital in London to give birth,” explains this source.
Finally, the former American actress was taken to that hospital, where she gave birth in the early hours of May 6, 2019, with Harry by her side. This time, if anything gets complicated, his residence is very close to the Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, considered one of the best in the United States.
This decision to light at home would also prevent the news from leaking before they announced it. “It is not clear, now that Meghan and Harry are private citizens, if they will announce the birth or how it will be. This time they do not have to adhere to the royal protocol,” says a royal source to Page Six.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex declined to announce where or when Archie was born, but the information was officially released with a note displayed on an easel on the Buckingham Palace esplanade. However, they agreed to a photo shoot on the grounds of Windsor Castle to introduce Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor to the world.
The exact date of birth is still unknown but the girl will be the first member of the British royal family to be born in the United States
Queen Elizabeth II’s grandson announced that they are expecting a girl during his interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this month, when the former actress showed her advanced pregnancy. The exact date of birth is still unknown but the girl – who will also not have Royal Highness treatment like her older brother – will be the first member of the British royal family to be born in the United States and far from Buckingham Palace.
Harry said in the interview that he granted Oprah with his wife that his family had cut off financial aid after his resignation from the Crown and that he had had to use the millions that Lady Di left him in order to start a new life in the United States .
