If You’re Wondering What Meghan Markle & Prince Harry’s Kids Might Look Like, We Have A Pretty Good Idea

It’s actually hard to believe that the Royal Wedding of the dreamy Prince Harry and the badass Meghan Markle is tomorrow. It seems like only yesterday that they were set up on a blind date by a mutual friend. (We’re sure that friend will make the ultimate toast to the happy bride and groom!) After the wedding is over, of course, the next countdown begins: the arrival of their first baby.

It’s historically typical for newly married couples in the royal family to have children soon after the wedding in order to secure an heir to the throne. However, it seems that this royal expectation isn’t what’s pushing Harry and Meghan. In fact, they both have expressed a strong interest in having children as soon as possible but aren’t in a huge rush. During their post-engagement interview, Harry noted he and Meghan didn’t currently have plans to start a family but “Of course, one step at a time and hopefully we’ll start a family in the near future.”

In Sky One’s documentary Harry and Meghan: A Love Story, Meghan’s former agent, Gina Nelthorpe-Cowne, stated, “[Meghan] said to me, ‘I would absolutely love to have children, and I can’t wait to be a mother.’” We’re pretty sure the whole world can’t wait for Meghan to be a mother, either!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are such physically beautiful people that we’d assume their baby would be in the running for the next Gerber baby. We decided to mesh together the happy couple to get a sense of what we can expect (hopefully within the next year) the baby to look like.

While we can definitely pick out Meghan’s iconic dimples and large dark eyes, but perhaps the baby will have his nose and chin. As demonstrated by the difference in Prince George’s and Princess Charlotte’s hair colors, it really depends on genetics.

Even though the royal couple’s face morphing didn’t exactly produce the cutest baby in the world, we have no doubt that the real one will be as beautiful as its mummy and daddy.
