tbf Megan married into the Royal family with all the public duties that entails, and she and Harry were happy to have a lavish wedding which cost the taxpayer a pretty penny and for the public to turn out in their thousands, I don't think it should be too much to ask that news of their baby be issued as soon as it happens, people turn out in rain or shine to support the Royals and its a bit of a snub to royal watchers, personally I could care less, but the couple can't have it both ways

I'm not denying what you said about the wedding, but I don't especially understand how because they're related to the royal family it means that the public has to be informed of the progress of the baby.

Just because they're Royal means that privacy is off the cards? Doesn't seem we've learnt a huge amount since Diana's death.

Excellent Cherie, they cant have it both ways ,the Royal Family ( and Im a massive fan of them apart from Meghan,Charles and Camilla) are supported by the taxpayer, and like it or not they have a duty to the public, if Mrs Up Her Arse doesn't like that she can pack her bags and sod off back to the USA

Heaven forbid a couple chooses how to have their baby and live their lives, how dare they?

It’s not their job to parade their baby through the streets after pushing it out, they’ll show it off when they see fit, which is their prerogative

I did, none of it is a convincing argument that they should have to give birth or announce the birth a certain way, we don’t own them, they don’t work for us, they have no obligation to do things because we want them to, traditions aren’t rules, they’re allowed to be altered and/or changed at will, their baby, their decision

If they wanted to keep things low key maybe they should have started with engagement interview and then the wedding....all they need to to do is bob up on some steps for 5 minutes, no one is expecting a Game of Throne style walk through the streets with the public on either side

some journalist will ask Meghan how she is and she will reply I'm grand, then there will be some jokey comment made to Harry....job done, media frenzy finished. William and Kate have controlled how their family are exposed to the press and tread the line between privacy and keeping the royal watching public on side very well and there is no intrusion as far as I can see, anyway it makes no odds I don't follow the Royals but I do think I would feel shortchanged if I did.

Meghan was asked to do a guest spot on Suits, so maybe he/she will be introduced to the world on that

Who cares !

We'll find out in time , it was obvious from the beginning that Harry & Meghan were doing things differently but we all know they're still under royal protocol but they get a bit more freedom.

Whereas William & Kate play the game & follow all the rules as its expected more from them.

They are kept by the taxpayer, and they have a duty to the taxpayer, she cant get her own way all the time

Well congratulations to them both...

The thing is with me is that the Royal family has its traditions...Meghan seems to want to have it her way and break those traditions..the home birth...not introducing her baby in the traditional way. If you marry into the Royal family and get granted the perks then imo you should make sacrifices and follow tradition wether you like it or not.
William and Harry have broken the stuffiness of the Royals but have kept with within ‘the boundaries’....but what Megan wants Megan gets And she’s doing it her way regardless...don’t think she’s doing herself any favours imo...it’s coming across as spoilt and stubborn like she has the right to do what she wants...

Every chance !! But I doubt the Queen would allow it ( the name has to be approved by her ) and Charles wouldn't like that either in case it upset horse face
