Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Expecting A Daughter, They Tell Oprah

Meghan Markle baby: The former Duke and Duchess of Sussex on their tell-all CBS interview with host Oprah Winfrey revealed the gender of their second child to the world, saying it would be a daughter. The couple is parents to one son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, born May 2019.

The two had made public their announcement of a second child on February 14. Among the major revelations Markle now made to Winfrey on her CBS special aired March 7 in the United States, she said that the ex-royal couple was expecting a daughter. "What more could you ask for?" Harry said.

The couple last year had suffered a miscarriage, an unfortunate event Markle said had brought "unbearable grief."

Meghan Markle Baby Archie Title Controversy

In this highly-anticipated interview with Winfrey, where the couple made their first televised appearance since departing from the royal family, Markle revealed the strains between them and Buckingham Palace.

Talking about why Archie was not given the 'prince' title at birth, she told Winfrey, "All the grandeur surrounding this stuff is an attachment I don’t personally have, right... The most important title I will ever have is ‘mom’."

"But the idea of our son not being safe and also the idea of the first member of colour in this family not being titled in the same way that other grandchildren would be… It’s not their right to take it away… While I was pregnant they said they want to change the convention for Archie. Well, why?”
