Meghan Markle and Prince Harry royal baby birth arrival will be kept private, Kensington Palace confirms.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will keep the birth of their first born private until they have had an opportunity to celebrate as a family.

Kensington Palace announced that the royal couple, who are expected to welcome their first child together this month, have made the ‘personal decision’ to avoid the public eye.

It comes just days after it was reported that Meghan has royally snubbed the Queen’s doctors in the lead up to the birth of her first child, as she doesn’t want the “men in suits” to deliver her baby.

A royal source told the Mail on Sunday: “Meghan said she doesn’t want the men in suits. She was adamant that she wanted her own people. It did leave a few of us a little baffled.”

The Sun revealed that the Duchess of Sussex is expected to break a four-decade royal tradition by shunning the Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital in London.
