Meghan Markle will give her child this meaningful gift, and it has an amazing backstory

Our hearts!

So as we all know, the gorgeous Meghan Markle is due any day now.

In fact, the royal baby could have arrived already, considering Meghan and Harry aim to keep the birth private.

Anyway, the royal baby will never really want for anything, but some things have more meaning than others.

For example, Meghan Markle will give her child a very meaningful gift, and it has a very sweet backstory.

Back in 2015, before any of this royal stuff started, Meghan bought herself a special gift.

The then-actress splurged on a Cartier Tank Franchise watch, which would have set her back around $7000.

At the time she spoke about the purchase.

She said: “When I found out Suits had been picked up for our third season – which, at the time, felt like such a milestone – I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version of the watch.”

“I had it engraved on the back, ‘To M.M. From M.M.’ And I plan to give it to my daughter one day.”

“That’s what makes pieces special, the connection you have to them.”

How cute is that?

Sure, this baby will have crowns, jewels and everything else, but we reckon that the watch will mean the most.
