snoop1130 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Meghan, Britain's Duchess of Sussex and wife of Prince Harry, gives birth to boy By Gerry Mey FILE PHOTO: Britain’s Prince Harry and his wife Meghan wave as they ride a horse-drawn carriage after their wedding ceremony at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle in Windsor, Britain, May 19, 2018. REUTERS/Damir Sagolj/File Photo WINDSOR, England (Reuters) - Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex and wife of Britain’s Prince Harry, gave birth to a boy on Monday, Harry announced. The baby, seventh-in-line to the British throne, "is absolutely to die for", the prince told reporters. In a formal announcement on their official Instagram account the royal couple said they "welcomed their firstborn child in the early morning on May 6th, 2019. Their Royal Highnesses’ son weighs 7lbs. 3oz". (3.2 kg) "The Duchess and baby are both healthy and well, and the couple thank members of the public for their shared excitement and support during this very special time in their lives. More details will be shared in the forthcoming days." Queen Elizabeth's grandson Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, a U.S.-born former actress, married in a lavish ceremony at the monarch's Windsor Castle home in May last year. The baby will be the eighth great grandchild of the 93-year-old queen, the world's longest-reigning monarch, and could be entitled to hold joint British and American citizenship according to nationality rules. However, the child will not automatically be a prince or a princess as any such title will have to be bestowed by the queen by issuing what is known as a letter patent. The parents are officially titled the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Britain's royal family attracts huge media interest but the younger members, especially Harry and Meghan, are treated like Hollywood superstars. -- © Copyright Reuters 2019-05-06 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basil B Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) 35 minutes ago, VocalNeal said: I think he will have to decide when he is 18 ? but as I understand it Meghan is subject to IRS tax and until he is 18 his wealth would part of his mothers tax assessment. Edit in: Quote The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have had their first child and along with the excitement and nerves of being new parents could come an unwanted tax bill. As US citizens, Meghan - and her baby son - are liable to pay US taxes. The US is one of only a few countries to charge tax based on citizenship and not residency. Other countries that tax non-resident citizens include Eritrea and Myanmar. This means that even though the duke and duchess will be living at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, the US government still expects Meghan to file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) - the US tax authority. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-47889162 Edited May 6, 2019 by Basil B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OneEyedPie Posted May 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2019 My personal view is I can't stand this pair. They want to be down with it but seem to forget the British taxpayer pays handsomely for their every waking moment and then want to break with tradition for what amounts to two minutes on the steps for a picture of them and baby. The continued and overt extravagance also hasn't gone unnoticed. What with their move to Froggy House and continual reports of upsetting the staffers and immediate family it would seem they're being sidelined slowly but surely. Give me Wills, Kate and family any day. 3 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CharlieH Posted May 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2019 Far too much media attention given to this pair, which fuels the already bloated ego's of both of them, they should follow the example of Wills & Kate in my opinion. She's playing "the role" for all its worth and is now set for life no matter what happens. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her net worth in 2018 was $5 million and she would have tripled that over the next 20 years in movies/ shows. She was already set for life. In many ways she is making a sacrifice, you cant just switch off at 5 pm as a royal Edited May 6, 2019 by madmen 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly unikely, $5 mil is nothing and apart from Suits which was scheduled to end (for her character) she was a nobody, she made "him" her career move and next well paid role.

Emdog Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Cute couple. I respect Harry for work on Invictus games. Never seen her work, so no comment on that.

VocalNeal Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) The kid is part American and part British. Does that make him Canadian? Quote But, is it Bleck......? The uncertainty is probably the reason for the reluctance to have the scheduled 2 mins photo opportunity on the hospital steps.
