Meghan Markle is said to be struggling and experiencing ‘sadness’

Meghan Markle is said to be experiencing “sadness” over baby heartbreak, with the Duchess reportedly “struggling” as she faces the end of an era.

The Duchess of Sussex is a doting mother to her two children. Meghan and her husband Prince Harry welcomed their first child, Prince Archie, in 2019. And in 2021, the couple welcomed their second child, Princess Lilibet.

Just last month, for Mother’s Day in the United States, which is where the couple and their young family reside, Meghan was not with her children on the special day. During the Sussexes’ recent visit to Nigeria, which fell on Mother’s Day in the US, the former Suits actress shared her grief when she spoke of how she was not with her kids.

She said at the time: “Today is Mother’s Day. So it feels appropriate that although of course we are missing our children, I’m missing my babies, it feels very appropriate to be in the motherland and amongst family.”

And now a source has told OK! Magazine that Meghan struggles to be apart from her two young children. The source told the publication: “Meghan doesn’t like being away from her children as she doesn’t want to miss a thing with them growing up so fast. With Lili turning three, it’s really got Meghan and Harry thinking about their future and how quickly the children are growing up. Meghan especially feels that her babies are no longer babies and like most mums, it makes her slightly sad and wistful that the baby years have come to an end.”

The Sussexes’ daughter turned three on June 4, which is why Meghan could be struggling with the end of an era. The magazine reports that parenting expert Amanda Jenner explains: “For many parents, it really is a mix of emotions when you think your children are growing up so fast; it can leave parents feeling anxious about how fast time is going but it is completely natural.

“It’s perfectly normal that Meghan is feeling that sudden sadness and it’s important to find the positive. This can also be a time for parents to find themselves again as a person.”
