It seems as though Prince Harry and Meghan Markle [1] aren't expecting their new bundle of joy too soon. On Sunday, the Duke of Sussex made a solo appearance at the annual London Marathon shortly before Meghan's due date [2]. At the event, Harry rocked a grey blazer over a white shirt with jeans as he spoke with volunteers, cheered on athletes, and presented medals to the winners. According to Harry and Meghan's joint Instagram account [3], Harry has served as Patron of the London Marathon Trust [4] since 2012 because he "believes that mental fitness is absolutely crucial to our wellbeing."
Harry has recently made a few appearances while Meghan rests at their new Frogmore Cottage abode [5] in preparation for the baby [6]. On Easter, he joined Prince William and Kate Middleton [7] — who also visited him and Meghan [8] at their home that same day — for a church service and celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's 93rd birthday. Just a few days later, he and Kate attended the Anzac Day Service [9] to honour the Australian and New Zealand forces.
We know that Harry is really looking forward to being a dad [10], so he's probably just as excited as the rest of us [11]. But unless he plans on sprinting from the marathon to the hospital, we don't think he anticipates Meghan going into labour for the time being!
