Their Royal Highnesses’ son weighs 7lbs. 3oz. The Duchess and baby are both healthy and well, and the couple thank members of the public for their shared excitement and support during this very special time in their lives.

I don’t know about you guys, but I can’t wait to get more of those deets! Like a name, perhaps???
This is what the baby announcement looked like on Instagram:
I am loving how minimal and modern this announcement is!
A few minutes later, Prince Harry surprised the press by stepping out to confirm the happy news that Meghan had, in fact, given birth to a baby boy on May 6.
He also spoke about his joy at becoming a dad for the first time"
"I haven’t been in many births, this is definitely my first birth," he announced, smiling from ear to ear. "But it was amazing, absolutely incredible, and as I said, I’m so incredibly proud of my wife. As every father and parent would say, your baby is absolutely amazing. But this little thing is absolutely to die for, so I’m just over the moon."
More to come…
