An official trip by Prince William to Netherlands next week has been taken by some as a hint that his and Meghan Markle's baby has already been born.
"His Royal Highness will then travel to The Hague to officially launch the one year countdown to the Invictus Games The Hague 2020," the Kensington Palace confirmed.
There has been no official confirmation of the birth, but the Queen has been reported to visit the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at their home in at their home in Windsor on Wednesday.
Another speculation has come up, following photographs of a dogwalker walking the pets of Markle's mother, Doria, in Los Angeles. The news has been taken to mean that Doria Ragland has let her dogs in the US to travel to Britain and be with her daughter, following the birth of her grandchild.
Meanwhile, social media have been filled with messages of anticipation ahead of the big royal baby announcement, expected any day now.
