The Queen's granddaughter — tenth in line to the throne — and Brooksbank were married in October 2019 in front of 800 guests at St. George's Chapel. The new baby will be the Queen's ninth great-grandchild, the first royal baby since Meghan Markle gave birth to son Archie in May 2019.
Eugenie and her husband haven't been the only royals with babies on the brain. As OK! previously reported, the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, are looking to expand their family as well.
An insider told Us Weekly that the 39-year-old and her husband, 36, are “both really excited” about the “next phase of their family journey.” Added the source: “Seeing how happy and complete Harry is with Archie by his side is richly rewarding for Meghan. Meghan’s confident a second child will be perfectly manageable on a practical level and will bring them even more love and joy.

It looks like Great-Grandma Queen Elizabeth will have her hands full!
