Royal author 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.”

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

Betting company Ladbrokes say odds are that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will announce pregnancy number two as soon as this year. 

A spokesperson at Ladbrokes revealed: “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.”

Nicholl also told ET that Harry and Meghan are determined to give Archie a normal life. 

“I think the couple are determined for Archie to have as normal a life as possible.

“You have to remember that Prince Harry grew up very much in the spotlight, never far away from the gaze of the camera.

“And at points in his life that has been something, he has resented.”

The news comes as the former Suits actress revealed she is ‘struggling’ with the intense public scrutiny

Since marrying Prince Harry and joining the royal family, Meghan is reportedly finding the scrutiny so extreme it’s at a ‘whole different level’ than what she received as a famous actress.

A royal insider told People:  “Meghan has struggled with the intensity of the spotlight.

“Although she is a former actress, this is on a different level.”

This is not the only report to surface in recent weeks that claims Meghan Markle is really battling with her new life in the royal spotlight. 

Whether it be how she held her son, Archie Harrison, at the polo, her decision to have a private christening or her demands that no one takes photos of her at the Wimbledon Grand Slam, the Duchess has continuously attracted negative press, and royal reporter Victoria Arbiter says it’s finally reached boiling point. 

Miss Arbiter, spoke to Today about how the onslaught of critics has affected the royal. 

“As far as her American fans go, there has been a sense there’s not been enough done to protect her—at some point, you have to wonder what is going to be the breaking point.”

Ms Arbiter continued: “Yes, she keeps on trucking at the moment but it can’t be anything but incredibly difficult. We need to let Meghan blossom and let her do the job she’s in the Royal Family to do and perhaps hold back on some of the criticism.”
