Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s love story captured the world’s hearts when they wed in May 2018, and now the newlyweds have announced a much anticipated addition! Their wedded bliss is about to become more magical with a royal baby on the way for the Duke and Duchess of Essex, as announced by the Kensington Palace this morning.
Ever since their engagement, we’ve fallen head-over-heels for the couple, and come Spring 2019, the royal grounds will be blessed with the pitter-patter of another bouncing baby. In honor of the big news, if you can’t help but wonder what kind of gifts are fit for a royal, we’ve come up with a few ideas. From a state-of-the-art pram to a lush pajama set, this list is ready for the little prince or princess’s arrival.
A Rocking Horse
The wee ones have grand imaginations, and whether the royal baby is a boy or girl, a rocking horse is an old-school favorite. Hermès created the Hermy ‘Cheval Pixel’ rocking horse which has a beechwood base and a foam interior for ultimate support fit for a king or queen.
A Hamper Set
If clueless when shopping for a royal, a little bit of everything might do the trick. This English Trousseau ‘Goodie Two Shoes Hamper’Â contains a silver-plated birth certificate holder, white cotton bodysuit, a silver plated piggy bank, an a few extras all wrapped up in a chic wicker basket.
A Modern Pram
A gift for mom and baby, the Silver Cross ‘Surf Aston Martin’ pushchair is comfortable, safe, and ever-so-stylish. While Kate Middleton went for a more classic Silver Cross pram, we want Meghan to push the envelope once again with a state-of-the-art stroller that comes with a reversible seat and puncture-free tires.
A Luxe Bassinet
We’ve noticed that Meghan is a modern-day princess who isn’t afraid of contemporary designs, which is why this ‘Sleepi’ crib from Stokke could be the perfect place for her baby to rest. A wooden frame gives the bed a minimalist streamlined design and the wheels at the bottom make it so that the baby can sleep anywhere in the home.
A Delicate Brush
Precious baby locks need the utmost of care and a pristinely delicate brush to comb it. This Tiffany & Co. Elsa Peretti ‘Heart’ baby brush will do just that (and it can also be engraved to make it extra special).
Bonus: The Perfect Push Present
What is a better symbol of love, affection, and appreciation for birthing a royal heir than a push present? An engraved Van Cleef & Arpels ‘Perlée’ signature bracelet is a subtle yet timeless accessory that fits with any of Meghan’s stylish ensembles that will always remind her of their bundle of joy.
