Prince Harry reportedly wants to have kids with Meghan Markle soon.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may start their own family in the near future. According to Adam Helliker, a journalist for Express, Prince Harry is keen to be a dad.
"He once told me over drinks after a polo tournament in Barbados – before he had met Meghan Markle – that he often 'daydreamed' about the time he would become a father," Helliker wrote.
The columnist added that the royal couple has been spending much of their time at their isolated farmhouse on the Great Tew estate in Cotswolds. They were last seen at Charlie van Straubenzee's wedding last weekend and had been hardly out at all.
"We've heard that their staff have been told to leave them undisturbed unless it’s something really urgent," the journalist added.
[post_ads]Paul Burrell had the same to say about the royal. Princess Diana's former royal butler previously said that Prince William's brother wants to have a big family, so he will likely start working on it immediately after the royal wedding.
"I believe that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will start a family as soon as possible!" Burrell said. "Harry also wants a large family and wants children as quickly as possible."
Markle's father also revealed in an interview, that the Duchess of Sussex is desperate to have her own kids.
"She's wanted children for a long time and when she met Harry and spoke about how much she loves him, there's got to be a child in the making," Thomas Markle Sr. said. "I don’t think the stork has hit the air yet but I think it will happen soon."
However, many believe that it's best for Prince Harry and Markle to wait until they are done with their royal engagement abroad. The couple is set to visit Australia in October for the Invictus Game and traveling when pregnant would be risky for the duchess.
According to National Health Services, the first 12 weeks can be difficult due to nausea and overwhelming exhaustion. In addition, the risk of miscarriage in the first three months is higher.
While traveling during pregnancy is not prohibited, expectant moms are advised to take caution. "Travel during pregnancy is a concern for many women," Sarah Reynolds, a consultant obstetrician and gynecologist at the Bedford Hospital NHS Trust said. "But if your pregnancy has no complications then there's no reason why you can't travel safely, as long as you take the right precautions."
