The First Gift Meghan Will Give Royal Baby Revealed... SEE Picture

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced the exciting news that they are expecting their first child together and it seems that is a moment Meghan has been preparing for for many years.

In fact the mother-to-be already has a gift lined up for her future child, if it's a girl, which she purchased before she had even met Prince Harry.

In an interview back in 2015, almost a year before she began dating her now husband, the then actress revealed the heirloom piece she plans to give to her daughter.

Speaking to Hello! magazine she said: 'I’ve always coveted the Cartier French Tank watch - I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version.


'I had it engraved on the back, “To M.M. From M.M.” and I plan to give it to my daughter one day.

'That’s what makes pieces special, the connection you have to them.'

The classic wristwear retails at almost £5,000 and the engraving is thought to stand for 'to Meghan Markle from Meghan Markle' as it was a gift to herself to celebrate the third season of Suits.

However, the message could well influence the couple's name choice if they do have a little girl as she would inherit the timepiece, and so they could opt with a moniker beginning with M to reflect the engraving.

It is not yet known whether the couple are expecting a boy or a girl and the public are unlikely to find out until its birth next Spring.
