Meghan Markle Sparks Pregnancy Rumors with Subtle Gesture at Queen’s Procession

A recent video circulating on Twitter has ignited speculation about Meghan Markle's potential pregnancy.

In the footage, she is seen gently touching her stomach during the solemn procession for Queen Elizabeth II, prompting fans to wonder if another royal baby might be on the way.

This appearance comes on the heels of already swirling rumors, with one social media user commenting, “It's probably not the time, but both Kate and Meghan are pregnant.”

With this latest gesture, the chatter has only intensified.

The coat Meghan chose to wear during the procession—a black Givenchy piece—has further fueled these discussions.

Interestingly, this is the same coat she donned while pregnant with her first child, Archie.

One Twitter user speculated whether Meghan was deliberately drawing attention to her midsection, asking, “Is Meghan pretending to be pregnant with a choice of clothes?”

Despite the online buzz, there's currently no concrete evidence suggesting that she is expecting again; it appears to be mere speculation among fans.

As the video circulated, many fans and critics took to social media to express their thoughts on Meghan's actions.

Her habit of touching her belly during previous pregnancies has often been a topic of conversation.

Some observers have criticized this behavior, claiming it seems excessive.

However, experts have come to her defense, asserting that such gestures can be entirely natural and positive.

Dr. Mary-Jane Minkin, an obstetrician and gynecologist, shared her insights, stating, “I think it shows that she really cares for her baby, and that's terrific.”

Georgia Rose, a maternity expert from Village Maternity in New York, echoed this sentiment, explaining that cradling one's belly is a common instinctive behavior among mothers.

“This is a totally normal thing that mothers do, and they do it instinctively and naturally,” she remarked.

The public's reaction to Meghan's gestures reflects broader societal attitudes toward motherhood and the scrutiny faced by high-profile figures.

Adding another layer to the conversation, Today Extra host Sylvia Jeffries has stepped up to defend both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

She highlighted the courage it took for the couple to stand alongside Prince William and Kate Middleton at Windsor Castle, especially amidst the public and media's hostile environment.

“I can't help but think that would have been a really threatening environment for Harry and Meghan, or at least daunting,” Jeffries noted during her commentary.

The royal family's united front in the wake of Queen Elizabeth II's passing was significant, as they engaged with grieving members of the public following the monarch's death last Thursday.

Earlier in the week, Jeffries had expressed her support for the Sussexes, particularly after Harry faced backlash over his upcoming memoir, which has reportedly been delayed until next year.

In response to the negative sentiment directed at the couple, Jeffries revealed that the ongoing criticism has taken a toll on her well-being.

“I'm starting to feel sick about the negativity around Harry and Meghan this time,” she admitted during an interview with feminist commentator Jane Cairo.

This echoes a sentiment many feel regarding the relentless scrutiny the couple faces.

Jeffries also drew parallels between Harry's current experiences and his childhood trauma following the death of his mother, Princess Diana, in 1997.

“History is repeating itself in so many ways with Harry,” she lamented, noting how his grief has often been subject to public ownership.

The media frenzy surrounding Diana's death continues to haunt Harry, who was just 12 years old at the time.

Cairo chimed in, expressing her frustration over the ongoing animosity towards Harry and Meghan.
