Meghan Markle stunned in a £285 floral silk maxi-dress for her latest pregnancy snap, which was released hours after she and Prince Harry revealed they are expecting a baby girl during their bombshell Oprah interview.
The Duchess of Sussex, 39, showcased her blossoming baby bump in an off-shoulder tropical printed floor length gown by American brand La Ligne as she posed alongside the Duke, 36, and lovingly cradled their 22-month-old son Archie in the garden of their $14 million California mansion.
The brand was created by former American Vogue journalists Meredith Melling and Valerie Boster, with their website describing ‘the best things in fashion (and life)’ as ‘universal, timeless and classic, but never off limits for reinvention.’
The couple’s latest snap, shared by their pregnancy photographer to mark International Women’s Day, comes after their much-anticipated interview with Oprah Winfrey aired in the US on Sunday evening.

In the snap, Meghan’s blossoming baby bump was on full display as she held her infant son, whose face was hidden from view, in a tight embrace.
The expectant mother looked effortlessly glamorous as she styled her brunette tresses loosely across her shoulders, while she and Harry both opted to go barefoot for the outdoor snap.
According to the site, Meghan’s gown, which is currently sold out online, was named after La Ligne muse Pyper America, who is the bassist in an alternative rock band called The Atomics.
It’s online description details the ‘easy silk dress’ as featuring ‘a smocked bodice, puff sleeves’ and pockets.

Harry, whose face was also obscured from view, cut a casual figure in an understated pair of trousers and a simple shirt as he wrapped his arms around Meghan and gazed down at Archie.
Meghan was all smiles as she posed with her husband and son for the intimate family photograph, which comes after Meghan announced her pregnancy on Valentine’s Day.
Misan’s caption alongside the stunning snap read: ‘What wonderful news to celebrate on International Women’s Day! Congratulations my friends, and welcome to the #girldad club H’
It comes after the couple, who live in Montecito, California, revealed that their second child is a girl and is due to be born this summer during their bombshell Oprah interview
The pregnancy snap comes after the couple, who live in Montecito, California, revealed that their second child is a girl and is due to be born this summer during their bombshell Oprah interview.
Harry joined his wife for the second half of the much-anticipated interview on CBS with Oprah to reveal the news, excitedly telling the chat show host: ‘It’s a girl.’
The couple announced on Valentine’s Day last month that they are expecting a second child, saying they were ‘overjoyed’ at their pregnancy.

Their news echoed Princess Diana’s announcement of her own second child – Prince Harry – which was printed in newspapers on Valentine’s Day in 1984.
The announcement came soon after Meghan suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage last year.
If born in the US, Meghan and Harry’s baby will be entitled to US citizenship as an automatic right, and will have dual citizenship through her father. She will also be able to run for US presidency if born on US soil.
Bookies have already started taking odds on what the name of Archie sibling would be, with Diana coming in first position as well, before Alexandra and Florence, Arabella and Elizabeth.
Bookmakers Ladbrokes had said at the time that the chances of Harry and Meghan naming their girl Diana were four to one.
