Meghan Markle Has Given Birth To A Baby Boy

Meghan Markle, aka the Duchess of Sussex, has given birth to a son. This is her first child with husband Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex.

The newborn prince was born at 5:26 a.m. local time and weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces.

The royal couple confirmed their news via their official Instagram on Monday

"We are pleased to announce that their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their firstborn child in the morning on May 6th, 2019."

The Duchess went into labor "In the early hours of this morning," The Palace said in a statement provided to hdfilmywap48 news.

"The Duchess and baby is both healthy and well, and the couple thanks members of their lives for this very special time during their shared excitement and support. More details are coming in the future."

Prince Harry greeted reporters after the baby's birth, saying the birth is "the most amazing experience I could ever imagine."

He too had plenty of praise for his wife

"How any woman does what they do beyond comprehension, but we're both absolutely thrilled," he said.

He later added: "It was amazing, absolutely incredible, and as I said, I am so incredibly proud of my wife. And as every father and parent will never say, your baby is absolutely amazing, but this little thing is absolutely to die for. "

The prince said the couple had "still thinking about names" for the new addition, but we will all get a glimpse of the baby later this week.

In a break from the now-standard royal practice of waving at cameras while leaving the hospital, the duke and duchess said last month that they will be born in private.

Per tradition, however, the official announcement of the royal baby's birth was put out on display outside Buckingham Palace on Monday afternoon.
