Royal fans around the world can't wait for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to welcome their first child. Meghan, 37, is due any day now and members of the royal family are desperate to meet the newest Prince or Princess. While we wait patiently for the announcement to be made, let's take a look at all the sweet things the royals have said.
Back in November, shortly after Meghan's pregnancy was announced, the Duchess of Cambridge revealed her excitement for her brother-in-law and sister-in-law. Kate spoke to crowds at Leicester University, saying she was "absolutely" excited about the baby. She also touched on her own children, adding: "It's such a special time to have little kiddies. And now a cousin for George, Charlotte and Louis as well! It's really, really special."

Charles also revealed that he and Camilla had toasted the good news "several times". During a visit to Royal Lochnagar Distillery in Aberdeenshire, the future King sampled a 30-year-old malt and was asked if he had toasted becoming a grandfather again. "Oh yes, absolutely. Several times, thank you," laughed Charles.
