On July 18, 2019, royal fans were abuzz with excitement as expert Melanie Bromley predicted that Meghan Markle could be announcing baby number two soon.
The Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, welcomed their first child, Archie, in May 2019. As they prepare to return to royal duties after their planned visit to Africa, Bromley believes that they could be expecting another addition to their family.
"I do, and I think it will be really soon," Bromley said in an interview. "I think she will be pregnant by this time next year. They have Africa in the fall, which will keep them really busy, so after that."
Her prediction has sparked a flurry of bets being placed with Coral, with company spokesman Alex Apati stating, "We have been inundated over the last few days with bets on Harry and Meghan having a second baby in 2020, and as always with gambles of this kind, there is seldom smoke without fire."
