Duchess Meghan Set For Three Months Maternity Leave

Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is set to step aside from her royal duties for only three months after she gives birth to her first child.

The former actress is expecting the tot with husband Prince Harry any day now and has refused the opportunity to take a year off, according to sources.

The couple married in May last year and the expectant mum may even return to public life in June. An insider told The Sun newspaper: "Meghan has made it very clear she wants to return to work as soon as possible. She has huge amounts of energy, is extremely determined and wants to be as hands-on as possible with her charities.

"Nothing has been written into her diary just yet, as she wants to wait and see how she feels after having the baby. She's pencilled in three months, but she'll most likely return to public life in six weeks - on the Queen's official birthday, Trooping the Colour, in June.

"Three months maternity is standard in the US for American mums - they don't normally get the six or even 12 months women get here in the UK. So this is totally normal for Meghan."
