Harry & Meghan Keeping It Small

Jul 13, 2018 | 6:30 AM

Children, almost certainly yes, but the question is, how many? That’s the question newlyweds Prince Harry, 35, and Meghan Markle, 36, have been contending with since news of their May 19thnuptials broke.

In Dublin on Wednesday, one woman in the crowd of admirers gathering to greet the royals had a suggestion framed as a question: “My husband also has red hair and he gave me five children – when are you and Meghan going to get going?”

The woman told People magazine of his response: “He laughed and said ‘Five children? Too many.’ “

Still, fans who want a bambino sooner rather than later can cling to Harry’s previous comments to the BBC shortly after their engagement: “You know, one step at a time. Hopefully we’ll start a family in the near future.”
