In a surprise for their loyal fan base, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry have made their first public appearance since announcing they’re expecting their second child.

Of course, one can’t expect an appearance from a pregnant Duchess Meghan without the immediate need to unpack every detail of her maternity outfit – and this one definitely didn’t disappoint.

The Australian Women’s Weekly may no longer be on Facebook but here’s everywhere else you can find our fabulous content:

The pair dropped into a pre-filmed video with Spotify on Monday, where they chatted about their own podcast, Archewell Audio, which they launched on the streaming giant’s platform late last year.

Like clockwork, the pair finish each other’s sentence in the clip – Meghan says their podcast is used to “drive powerful conversations…”

Harry adds, “… That inspire, challenge and educate.”

In the clip, Meghan looks chic as always wearing a beautiful light blue dress embossed with green and gold coloured leaves.

Designed by Oscar de la Renta, the beautiful dress is light, flowy and features a drop waist – perfect for maternity wear.

On Valentine’s Day this month, Harry and Meghan announced they are expecting their second child.

“Archie is going to be a big brother,” their spokesperson added of the exciting news.

Of course fans went into a tizz of excitement – something the Duke and Duchess have a knack for inciting.

Shortly after their announcement, they made the quiet movement of formally stepping back from their royal roles – something that had been in the works for the previous 12 months.

In a statement from Buckingham Palace, the Firm explained: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed to Her Majesty The Queen that they will not be returning as working members of The Royal Family.”

They continued: “Following conversations with The Duke, The Queen has written confirming that in stepping away from the work of The Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service.”

The statement ended: “While all are saddened by their decision, The Duke and Duchess remain much loved members of the family.”

It certainly looks as though bigger things lie ahead of the Sussexes, though for them, family will always come first.
