At the time when it was announced Markle was pregnant, Kensington Palace initially said she was due in the spring. That has since gotten more specific as Markle revealed in January that she was due in April.

Prince Harry's father and stepmother, Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, have a scheduled appearance in Germany May 7. People reported that the couple announced on Monday they will be going on a three-day tour of the country, starting in Berlin and going to Leipzig and Munich.

The timing might mean Markle will give birth before then.

Although Markle will not be appearing for a photo op the day of the baby’s birth, the palace said it will announce when she is in labor.
