London | Britain’s Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle gave birth to a healthy baby boy on Monday.
Meghan, 37, went into labour “in the early hours” of Monday morning, and her husband Prince Harry was by her side, the Buckingham Palace said.
“It’s a boy,” the palace has said.
“The Duchess and baby are both healthy and well, and the couple thank members of the public for their shared excitement and support during this very special time in their lives,” Buckingham Palace said in the Instagram statement.
This is the couple’s firstborn son, and seventh in line to the throne.
A name hasn’t been decided yet, reports say that the couple is still deciding on one.
Queen Elizabeth’s grandson Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, a U.S.-born former actress, married in a lavish ceremony at the monarch’s Windsor Castle home in May last year.
