The Duke and Duchess are expecting their first child together.

Can you believe it’s been less than 24 hours since Kensington Palace announced that Meghan Markle is pregnant?

Yep, time flies when there’s royal news, with much speculation around the gender, name and even title the royal baba will get keeping everyone occupied yesterday.

And while we’ve no official information on any of that yet, what we have got is our first official gift from a foreign dignitary.

Harry and Meghan landed down in Australia yesterday for day one of a 16-day international tour of Oz, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga.

Before their arrival, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the news of a royal baby was great and that he was “looking forward to sharing in the joy during your stay down under”.

And to mark the occasion, Australia’s governor-general presented the expectant parents with a very special gift for their little one: a pair of teeny tiny Ugg boots.

It was no surprise that Australian officials thought of marking the announcement of a royal baby but we just love that they did it with a pair of Ugg boots.

Yes, the baby isn’t even born yet and it’s already amassing a more impressive shoe collection than we’ve got.

Lads, if there is one thing that will reduce anyone to mush it’s teeny tiny designer shoes.

We mean, just look at dad-to-be Harry’s face – joy in its purest form.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were gifted with many other toys and local souvenirs for the royal baby by members of the public who gathered in their thousands to catch a glimpse of the pair on the first day of their trip in Sydney.
