A surprise trip to New York over the weekend has fans wondering about Meghan Markle’s baby shower—and lots of us are wondering what kinds of gifts a royal baby-to-be might receive at such a soirée!
According to Harpers Bazaar, the Duchess of Sussex travelled to New York City for the first time since getting married in order to squeeze in some girl time with her gal pals before Markle is anticipated to give birth in just a couple of months.
While the private soirée was completely under wraps and away from prying eyes on social media, a few details from Markle’s baby shower have since slipped out. According to PEOPLE, several celebrities were spotted entering the posh NYC hotel where Markel’s baby shower was held, including Amal Clooney, Serena Williams and Suits co-star Abigail Spencer. Guests also reportedly received high end carry-on luggage as favors and the shower featured a massive cotton candy machine.
“This will be the last time a lot of them will see Meg until after the baby is born so it’s nice to share precious moments,” a source close to the duchess told Harpers Bazaar, adding, “It’s been a relaxing visit. Nothing beats face time with your friends. Meg will be flying home refreshed and relaxed—and with a lot of new baby clothes.”
We’re sure to be seeing those new outfits put to use very soon as the world officially hunkers down for Royal Baby Watch 2019.
