Royal birth plans afoot

SPECIAL plans are being made to welcome the first child of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex.

Officials said on Wednesday that the landmark London Eye observation wheel on the banks of the River Thames will be lit in red, white and blue to mark the baby’s birth, the colours of the familiar Union Flag.

The baby is expected late this month or early May. He or she will be seventh in line for the British throne.

Harry and Meghan say they have chosen not to learn the baby’s gender.
