Along with Princess Eugenie's royal wedding over the weekend has come another piece of joyous news for the British royal family -

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby! 

The announcement was made official by Kensington Palace, just as Prince Harry and Meghan are beginning a tour of Australia, the first official tour since they got tied the knot in a widely-publicised wedding in May this year. 

According to BBC, Her Majesty the Queen along with other senior royals were informed of the pregnancy on Friday, when members of the Royal Family gathered in Windsor for Princess Eugenie's wedding.

The baby, who will be seventh in line to the throne, is expected to arrive in early 2019.
