You'll never guess what it is...

Less than 48 hours after the announcement that Meghan Markle is pregnant and the couple have already received a gift for their first child.

Kensington Palace announced on Monday that the baby is due in spring 2019 – although people already reckon they've worked out Meghan's due date.

While the royal family found out the news on Friday, it's thought that Meghan shared her pregnancy with this person a couple of months before.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had a jam-packed first day of their royal tour in Sydney, meeting Invictus games representatives as well as visiting a zoo and the Royal Opera House.

At the beginning of the day the pair were presented with a cuddly kangaroo by Australia's Governor General, Sir Peter Cosgrove, to which Meghan exclaimed, 'Our first baby gift!'

Later they also received a tiny pair of Ugg boots that we're sure will come in handy – although Meghan already has a gift for her future daughter, which she's had for years.

At Taronga Zoo the couple also met a pair of baby koalas that had been named after them in honour of their nuptials, according to The Sun. We're jealous.

'We genuinely couldn't think of a better place to announce the upcoming baby, be it a boy or a girl,' Harry said of the baby news.
