• Prince Harry attended an Anzac Day service at Westminster Abbey on April 25, 2019 with his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
  • Meghan Markle's due date is fast approaching, so it was previously thought that Prince Harry wouldn't attend the service.
  • The Duke of Sussex's appearance hints that Meghan's due date isn't as close as we had thought.

Meghan Markle is on maternity leave, but Prince Harry continues to keep a busy schedule in the run-up to the birth of his first child.

Having stepped out for the royal family's Easter Sunday service at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle over the weekend, Prince Harry made another appearance without his wife on Anzac Day. While Meghan's due date is rumored to be in late April 2019, per People, Harry's surprise appearance at Thursday's service suggests that the royal baby isn't coming just yet.

Reporting on Harry's attendance at Anzac Day, the Daily Mail's Rebecca English tweeted, "Sources say he had always hoped to be there but his name was printed on the order of service because of the imminent arrival of #BabySussex."

She continued, "I’ve been told: 'He is pleased he can attend today’s Service, as planned. With their baby due, his name was not printed in the programme in case he was unable to do so.' Suggests no sign of #BabySussex quite yet, then!" As English hints, Harry's attendance implies that Meghan isn't in labor, or expecting to be, at the moment.

Harry and Meghan recently moved into Frogmore Cottage ahead of the birth of the royal baby. Their move away from Kensington Palace started rumors of a feud between the brothers and their wives. However, Harry and Kate's sweet interactions on Anzac Day, and at the Easter Sunday church service at Windsor Castle, prove that there's zero bad blood between the couples.

As for when Meghan and Harry's baby is due, the waiting game continues.
