Kate Middleton ‘throwing second baby shower’ for Meghan Markle, reports claim

The Duchess of Sussex's mum Doria Ragland is thought to be attending the second celebration

Kate Middleton will be throwing a second baby shower for sister-in-law Meghan Markle, it’s been claimed.

After her star-studded shower in New York last month, the Duchess of Sussex is reportedly said to be preparing for a second celebration ahead of her impending arrival.

Further silencing rumours of a fall out between the royal wives, an insider told Us Weekly that the Duchess of Cambridge plans to host an intimate party for the former Suits actress with her “glam” team and mum Doria Ragland.

“There is still going to be some sort of private baby-centric event for Meghan’s UK people, and Kate will host,” the royal insider reportedly told the publication.

“Her glam people and other relatives will be there. Not sure if it’s a total baby ‘shower,’ but you could probably call it that.”

It’s not the first time there’s been talk of a second shower being held in the UK.

Last month royal reporter Omid Scobie tweeted about the second event, saying it will be for those who couldn’t make it to the New York bash.

“A smaller gathering [is] scheduled for pals on this side of the pond after Morocco,” he shared.

“It’s possible that some of Meghan’s nearest and dearest – like her mother, Doria Ragland – who couldn’t attend the Big Apple gathering may instead attend this UK one.”

While an insider told Fabulous that the party could be held in the Cotswolds where Prince Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, rent a home.

“It will be very low key, don’t expect a harpist, but it will still have the luxury items Meghan loves,” they said.

A handful of Meghan’s closest friends, including Serena Williams, Amal Clooney and stylist Jessie Mulroney attended her New York shower held at the upscale Mark Hotel. It’s thought the lavish event cost a huge £330,000.
