(15 Oct 2018) AMERICANS HAPPY FOR A ROYAL BABY Americans have been reacting to the news that Britain's Prince Harry and his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, are expecting their first child in the spring. The announcement came on Monday as Harry and the former Meghan Markle arrived in Sydney at the start of a 16-day visit to Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand. "I think it's awesome, yeah, I mean honestly, she's an American princess. I think she's a really cool woman and I think the world will be blessed to have one of her kids in the world," said Nikki Johnson from Silver Spring, Maryland. The baby is very unlikely to become king or queen, as it will be behind all of William and Kate's children, including 5-month-old Prince Louis. The child will, however, have the option of becoming an American citizen. That will be up to Harry and Meghan to decide whether to apply for a U.S. passport for the baby, who will automatically have British citizenship.
