Harry and Meghan could announce second pregnancy next year, claims royal reporter

They're said to want a 'big family'

| Updated:

It’s only two months since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their first child – little Archie Harrison.

But there’s already talk of the couple expanding their brood, with a royal reporter claiming that there could be another pregnancy announcement as early as next year.

And bookies seem to think that the news could come even earlier!

Royal correspondent Katie Nicholl told Entertainment Tonight: “I think it’s probably a little premature to be speaking about a second baby.

“That said, sources close to the couple told me that they really would love to have a big family.”

Harry’s older brother William and his wife, Kate Middleton, have three children – George, five, Charlotte, four, and Louis, one.

And Nicholl reckons that Harry and Meghan could announce a brother or sister for Archie in 2020.

She continued: “They absolutely want siblings for Archie, so possibly we will have a pregnancy announcement for Meghan and Harry sometime next year.”

However, bookies seem to think the Duke and Duchess of Sussex might not even wait that long.

Ladbrokes have dramatically slashed the odds on the couple making a pregnancy announcement THIS YEAR.

Whereas the likelihood of it happening was 8/1, it’s now just 3/1.

A Ladbrokes spokesman told Express.co.uk: “Harry and Meghan clearly aren’t messing around, and if the latest odds are anything to go by, the pair could be adding to their family next year.”

While Archie waits for a brother and sister, he’s sure to have a good time playing with his cousins.

According to a report in Us Weekly, William and Kate’s kids love Archie’s company.

A source told the publication: “They dote on him. Charlotte treats Meghan and Harry’s son like a little doll, and is always asking after him.”
