‘Before Meg can spell Torquay she’ll be starting a family’

MEGHAN’S priority will be having a baby, author Andrew Morton believes.

With the young Royals taking the starring roles in yesterday’s big day, the writer said he expected Harry and Meghan to add to the brood very soon.

He told the Daily Star Sunday: “I think that even before Meghan has learned how to spell Leicester and Torquay she’ll be starting a family.

“She’s not really going to be available for working for the Royal Family on a full-time basis until she’s 40, I’m sure.”

Morton got to know about the US star’s life and attitude while researchin­g his new book Meghan: A Hollywood Princess.

The writer, who was rushed to hospital last week after suffering a suspected stroke, says Harry, 33, is just as keen.

He added: “Harry has made it clear he wants to start a family.

“He’s seen all his friends and his own family, especially William, have children and he’s sick of being Uncle Harry – he wants to be Dad.

“Meghan and Harry are both from broken homes so they have that in common – both birds with a broken wing.”

Meghan, 36, delighted in sharing her spotlight with her new niece and nephew, Princess Charlotte and Prince George, as part of the bridal party. As she entered the church, she turned and smiled at her tiny followers. Charlotte, three, was at her cheeky best, and pageboy George, four, was joined by sevenyear-old twins Brian and John – the sons of Meghan’s close pal Jessica Mulroney – who carried the bride’s train.

The other flower-girl-cum-bridesmaid­s were Ivy Mulroney, four, Meghan’s godchildre­n Rylan, seven, and Remi, six, – daughters of her pal Benita Litt – and three-year-old Florence van Cutsem and Zalie Warren, two, who are Harry’s goddaughte­rs. They wore flowers designed by florist Philippa Craddock. The final pageboy was Harry’s godson Jasper Dyer, the son of his friend and mentor Captain Mark Dyer.

It was a happy day for the Queen who, as tradition dictates, was the last Royal to arrive. She was joined by Prince Philip, seen for the first time in public since his hip surgery. Glowing in her green and purple ensemble, she enjoyed the less traditiona­l elements of the ceremony, including bishop Michael Curry’s spirited sermon. Bookies Ladbrokes said it would pay out on both colours in its bet to guess the Queen’s hat shade.
