Let’s talk about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry for a moment, shall we? They’re not the only ones gearing up for the arrival of their second baby. Meghan’s mom, Doria Ragland, is absolutely thrilled at the idea of becoming a grandma again. According to an insider who spoke exclusively to Closer Weekly, Doria, at 64 years young, is overjoyed about this next chapter in her life. She’s not just excited—she’s downright over the moon!
Doria Ragland: The Grandma Everyone Wants
“She couldn’t be happier,” the source tells us, painting a vivid picture of Doria as the perfect grandma. For starters, she’s already got a pretty great relationship with Archie Harrison, Meghan and Harry’s firstborn. “Archie absolutely adores Doria. They have this incredible bond, and it’s clear that she’ll share the same kind of loving connection with baby No. 2,” the insider reveals. It’s easy to see why Doria is such a beloved figure in her grandkids’ lives—she’s warm, attentive, and clearly loves her family deeply.
Harry and Meghan Share the News
Harry, 36, and Meghan, 39, didn’t just spring this baby news on everyone out of nowhere. They made sure to share it with Doria first, of course, and also with the royal family before going public. According to the insider, Queen Elizabeth is genuinely excited for the couple, as are Prince Charles, Duchess Camilla, Prince William, and Duchess Kate. It’s clear that they all want Harry to be happy, and this baby is just another step in that direction.

It’s a moment of pure bliss, and the world couldn’t help but share in their joy.
A Royal Family in Transition
This happy news comes more than a year after Harry and Meghan stepped back from their senior roles in the royal family and relocated to North America. They initially settled in Canada but eventually moved to Los Angeles, finding their permanent home in Santa Barbara in August 2020. Since then, they’ve been raising Archie in their $14.7 million Montecito mansion, surrounded by love and support.
