By Micha Green

The Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle can now add “Mommy” to her title as she and her husband, Prince Harry announced they’re expecting a new royal baby.

“Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019,” Kensington Palace tweeted on October 15.

Mama Markle attended the royal wedding of Princess Eugenie of York on Oct. 12 and many proclaimed she stole the thunder with pregnancy rumors.  Markle refused to take off her jacket throughout the ceremony and looked a little heavier.

“I’m telling you now Meghan Markle is pregnant,” Twitter user @rebekkaarnold wrote.

I stayed up just to see what Meghan Markle is wearing and if she looks pregnant. She’s wore a long blue jacket that she didn’t take off in the Church. Could she be hiding something? 😳#RoyalWedding pic.twitter.com/uwm7nNVtv0
