The Markle-Harry baby will the first royal baby since the birth of Prince Louis last year . Markle revealed in October of 2018 that she was pregnant and expecting in the spring of 2019 . In December, Markle made her last pre-holidays appearance, where she told the crowd she was " very pregnant ." If my calculations are correct, she would have been about five months at that point. That does qualify as "very pregnant"!
