For such a long time, the fans watched Meghan’s fashion styles. Ever since she’s engaged with Prince Harry, people have been keeping a close eye on her wardrobe. Also, during Meghan’s wedding arrangement, bookmakers took bets on which designer she would wear on that big day.

The Wedding Day

Of course, this long-awaited wedding gown was really beautiful and straightforward. Meghan has collected a large amount from British artistic director Clare Waight Keller from the French company, Givenchy. The outfit was pretty expensive, yet soon, people will try to copy the Meghan dress for a cheaper price.

The Wedding Day

The Meghan Markle Effect

The media called it the Meghan Markle effect ‘ and it just got stronger after the wedding. In May 2018, the Duchess was the first to attend as a royal family at a party to celebrate Prince Charles’s 70th birthday. She wore a pink dress from Goat Fashion’s London label, and the company’s website crashed the very same day.

Meet The Parents

As Meghan went into her first royal wedding just a few weeks ago, royal enthusiasts realized this would be a very thrilling fashion-oriented day. Celia McCorquodale and George Woodhouse’s marriage was truly honored. Princess Diana, the Duchess, and her new groom were also invited to the Guest List since Celia is Prince Harry’s cousin and his late mother’s niece. The pair also showed up holding hands.

The Internet was Divided

Meghan wore a white and blue dress with a flower print and light-colored accessories. This particular dress came from Oscar de la Renta who is a designer that designed Meghan’s wedding dress before. Clearly, this outfit was really pretty, but the Internet was divided by the way the Duchess fits.

The Internet was Divided

Fashion Preference

Certainly, people were very rude about it. “Why does Meghan Markle look like a potato sack?” said one of Twitter users. Yet another common commenter said that Meghan “seems to reinvent the Gone with the Wind series in which Scarlett wears an outdated curtain dress. Meghan also needs to deal with the sofa at Marks & Spencer.

Fashion Preference

Off the Peg

However, some British royals disapproved of their fashion preference. “It’s not meant to suit the ‘ off the peg ‘ Oscar de la Renta top. But this dress is not fit for a British wedding in high society. It’s just too informal” said another irate Twitter user. “British high society has certain mores, including a wedding look”

Off the Peg

Follow the Rules

But if you really wait for Meghan to keep the standards of beauty, sadly, this is not the place for you. The Dutchess still follow the rules indeed. She carried a photograph of her engagement and it’s truly shocking that she wears a sheer dress. Don’t worry, there’s a knot inside to protect Meghan’s integrity. But the royal style’s traditional part was surprising.

Follow the Rules

Preferred by Many

Many people liked Meghan’s dress though. Just last June 2018, Harper’s journal, Bazaar, wrote that “the gown looked slightly baggy on the Dutchess. The floaty fabric and her matching fascinator created the perfect outfit for the summer nuptials.” The website, Fashionista, also stated that Meghan looked “ethereal and angel-like.”

Is Meghan Pregnant?

But there’s a significant issue from the conversation of fashion: Does Maghen wear such a loose dress because she was pregnant? As usual, many people asked when the two will start a family after Meghan and Prince Harry’s wedding. Also, did the couple begin conceiving before the wedding?

Is Meghan Pregnant?

False Rumors

Keep in mind that there are different articles stating that Meghan is pregnant. The National Enquirers can be an example of that. Since they revealed last June 2018 that the couple would have twins and were concerned about her pregnancy of the pair and that the Queen was “appalled.”

False Rumors

Debunking Rumors

However, after wearing the maxi dress for a month, Meghan cleared all the rumors down. She engaged in a party at British Ambassador’s Dublin Residence in Ireland on July 10, 2018, and was seen drinking champagne. Even if drinking a single glass won’t harm the baby, drinking when pregnant still seems unlikely.

Debunking Rumors

Starting a Family Soon

All believed that there’s a Royal Baby with her as Harry and Meghan’s first child. IN an interview last November 2017 during the couple’s engagement announcement, Harry stated to the BBC that “eventually, one step at a time, [we’ll] start a family soon.”

Starting a Family Soon

A New Life

Indeed, it was a very happy moment for Harry and Meghan and also for the millions who witnessed the wedding. Harry smiled at Meghan as it says to their faces that  “marriage is given as the foundation of family life in which children are born and nurtured.”

A New Life

 

Father of the Bride

But there’s a problem. As Thomas Markle, Meghan’s father stated. “When she met Harry and spoke about how much she loves him… there’s got to be a child in the making there soon,”. As Thomas stated on Good Morning Britain show in June 2018 that Meghan “wanted children for a long time.”

Rules for Giving Birth

Meghan should follow The Sun’s rules that if she’s been pregnant in the media, in Britain and Internationally, the baby must not be revealed until he was born. Before leaving the country, they must inform the Queen. Unless necessary.

Rules for Giving Birth

Years of Tradition

Such rules have been part of their tradition for a long time. Royals also don’t tell the baby’s identity to the public. After all, the royal family has been around longer than sonograms. Even Prince William and Kate Middleton are said that they did not want to know their children’s gender.

Years of Tradition

The Queen First

The Queen should get to know first if they got pregnant. She outranks everybody as the monarch, anyway. When Prince George was conceived, Prince William called the Queen on an encrypted phone. But soon, the public heard the story and after the duty was fulfilled, Kate’s parents will be informed.

The Queen First

The Royal Baby

The reports regarding the royal baby hit the peak before August 2018. The Sun seems to speak like an expert on what Meghan was pregnant with. “The one thing that might be interesting is her hair,” said Myka Meiler, who is an etiquette specialist in the Fabulous Section of the paper. “We don’t know what she does to treat her hair now, but she likely uses a keratin or a Brazilian treatment to straighten it.”

The Royal Baby

A Brazilian Treatment

Meghan also revealed in 2011 that she is using Brazilian treatment. She clarified that “My mom is black, and my dad is Dutch and Irish, so the texture of my hair is densely curly,”. She also stated that “I’ve been getting Brazilian blowouts for a couple of years.” So, how can it be a privilege when it comes to pregnancy?

A Brazilian Treatment

No More Treatments

She used formaldehyde, which is a big no-no when these treatments are used if you have a baby. “I think we’ll see [Meghan] wearing more of a bun when that happens, which could be a tell-tale sign she is pregnant as she’ll no longer be able to use those chemicals that are often used for that glossy look,” Meier mentioned.

No More Treatments

Meghan is Pregnant!

The long-awaited news arrived last October 15, 2018. “Meghan became pregnant.” The Royal Alights The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are glad to reveal to Kensington Palace that Sussex The Duchess expected a baby in Spring 2019.’ and this announcement is released on the social media platform.

Other politicians and public figures in the mainstream media congratulate Meghan afterward.

Maternity Style

Meghan’s maternity style quickly became the town’s talk. In fact, in that period of her life, she unveiled some of her most popular looks. Blue dresses appeared to be a common choice. This also comes with a navy gown created by Antonio Berardi which had a glamorous Givenchy pattern dress and a brightly colored style called the Beard Cary Dress.

A Royal Baby Boy

Then last May 6, 2019, the royal baby became bluer in showing. The baby boy named Archie Harrison Mounttatten-Windsor was granted to him by his mother. In Britain and America, the buildings were lit to celebrate: the London Eye was bathed in red, white, and blue, while the Niagara Falls just turned blue.

Bi-Racial

Meghan and Harry had a photoshoot of their baby a few days after the birth and it was out of this world! Of course, Meghan selected her outfit for the event. She wore a Grace Wales-Bonner dress and Oprah magazine reported, “For her first official photo as a new mom, Markle chose a designer who – just like her and now, the royal baby – is also bi-racial.”

Fashion to Connect

In fact, Meghan seems quite sure that she uses fashion to send a message to the world. This is believed that the dress she wore during her Africa tour was a tribute to the notion of sustainable design and her host continent.  It was a “Dalisto” dress produced in Malawi from May Miko that uses local fabrics.

Fashion to Connect

Modified Herself

Others thought that Megan should send a more intimate message in Africa using another outfit. During the first day of the series, Meghan changed her blue Veronica Beard top to the audience that she had worn while pregnant with Archie.

A Second Child?

It wasn’t long before the buzz rose again as royal viewers were convinced personally that Meghan hinted at a second child. “I’m gonna call it now, Meghan Markle is pregnant again and due around May next year again,” a Twitter user said. Yet they haven’t been the first to guess in the news network.

A Second Child?

Elegant Blue Dress

Meghan found the dress itself the best choice for touring. “I loved the Veronica Beard dress when she first wore it, and I like it again now. I think it is casually elegant, and the blue with Meghan’s coloring is just gorgeous!” as a commenter wrote on the What Meghan Wore website, which monitors fashion choices from the Duchess.

Baby Number 2?

Meghan again saw the next day wearing a sported dress she had previously used as maternity wear. The rumors that Meghan was pregnant again spiked for the second time. The outfit, this time was styled by the Australian fashion designer Martin Grant. It was a sophisticated, maxi-stretched brown and olive top.

Baby Number 2?

Rumors have it.

Meghan just announced her pregnancy to the public the last time and the world had seen her in the maxi dress and was embarking on a tour of Australia. She was carrying in her new dress with her new baby bump while walking. But this time, however, there’s no baby bumps. Was there any chance she’d just discovered a new pregnancy?

Rumors have it.

Re-wearing Clothes

In a newspaper article, Tamara Abraham, the fashion editor of The Daily Telegraph, wrote that she didn’t believe it was because Meghan was just recycling clothes. “The Duchess is re-wearing clothes that she last wore while expecting son Archie and in doing so, she’s showing us that shopping for ‘maternity wear’ isn’t what was,” Abraham said.

Re-wearing Clothes

Maternity Clothes in Style

“It’s no longer a question of buying specially made or XXL garments that serve no purpose once the baby is born,” as Abraham continued. “Instead, Meghan is proving it’s possible to find looks that both accommodate a growing bump and later be a working mum’s wardrobe heroes.”

Adding another Family Member

Yet, people are still convinced that Meghan will soon have another baby despite setting the dresses aside for the moment. Bookmaker Alex Apati from Ladbrokes confirmed in the Daily Mail in September 2019 that in a few years, Meghan will give birth to another baby. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex make it no secret they’re keen to add to their family.

Adding another Family Member

2020 Baby

“Meghan may have another child by the end of 2020,” he added. “But a flurry of bets around the country has forced us to cut odds to 8/11 now, with punters convinced a second baby announcement would come sooner.” Making this a reason for Meghan’s fashion choice.

No Baby Plans Yet

Even though Meghan and Harry will soon extend their family, royal enthusiasts must focus on unofficial sources to know more about the couple’s intentions. Journalist and activist Katie Nicholl addressed the future of the Sussexes with Entertainment Tonight in July 2019 for example

No Baby Plans Yet

It’s all for Archie

The Duke and Duchess “absolutely want siblings for Archie, so possibly we will have a pregnancy announcement – a second pregnancy announcement for Meghan and Harry – sometime next year. But, for the moment, the focus is obviously on Archie.” Nicholl said. Since the baby is still less than a year old.

It’s all for Archie

A little Older

“I think at the moment, they’re focusing on Archie,” Nicholl added. “But I know they plan to have more than one child.”. When Archie is a little older, look closely at his mother’s wardrobe. You never know what the Duchess might cleverly imply from her choices in clothes.

A little Older

The Second Wedding Dress

The Duchess made more statements as a royal in her time but we still can’t ignore her second wedding dress. The first of them had sparkling views, but they might forget the second, stunning Stella McCartney bateau neckline. The backless, halterneck gown was just lovely and distinct from the normal royal apparel that provoked freshness.
