The couple started a full day of royal engagements in Sydney today including a trip to Taronga Zoo. 

The news was announced by Kensington Palace after the smiling couple arrived in Sydney for the start of a gruelling 16-day tour of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga.

They insisted on going ahead with the trip in spite of Foreign Office advice to pregnant women about the risk of the Zika virus. 

Here's what we know so far!

 Meghan’s mother Doria Ragland was said to be among the first and admitted she was ‘very happy about this lovely news’ and ‘looks forward to welcoming her first grandchild’. She is thought to be moving to London to help with the baby soon.

Meghan’s estranged father Thomas Markle is ‘delighted’ and told her by letter: ‘You will make a great mother’

The baby will be seventh in line to the throne and is likely to be titled Earl of Dumbarton or Lady (first name) Mountbatten-Windsor

Meghan' and Harry's royal baby is due around the end of April - and could share a birthday with William and Kate's third son Prince Louis!
