The rumour mill is swirling with claims Meghan Markle is upset over the timing of her cousin-in-law Princess Beatrice’s pregnancy news.
On Thursday, Studio 10 hosts Sarah Harris and Tristan MacManus weighed in on whether the announcement was timed to upstage her third wedding anniversary to Prince Harry.
Sarah said that the rumour may have been ‘announced to spite Meghan and Harry, because it was their third wedding anniversary.’

Newsreader Natasha Exelby agreed that ‘indeed’ it was a possibility.

‘No she wouldn’t, she’d be happy that she’s having a child and so is everyone else,’ Tristan said.
Rumour: Sarah suggested Princess Beatrice’s baby news may have been ‘announced to spite Meghan and Harry because it was their third wedding anniversary’. Meghan married Harry on May 19, 2018. Beatrice’s baby news was announced on Wednesday, May 19
No feud: Sarah asked, ‘Do you think she’d (Beatrice) be thinking about that, making the announcement?’ Her co-host Tristan insisted: ‘No she wouldn’t, she’d be happy that she’s having a child and so is everyone else’
‘No one is thinking about anything,’ he added in regard to suggestions of a feud between the Royal family and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Royally mocked: Quizmaster Tom asked the panel comedians to name the first TV show Meghan appeared on following her interview with Oprah Winfrey. Tim McDonald (far left) had the panel in hysterics by responding: ‘Was it Better Homewreckers and Gardens?’
The panel burst into fits of laughter, as host Tom replied in mock disdain: ‘That is… very unkind. She cops a lot on this show!’
Sam was next to ring his buzzer, giving the tongue-in-cheek answer: ‘Family Feud.’
