The Duke and Duchess of Sussex just announced that they are expecting their first child together, but Meghan Markle already has a gift planned for the next royal baby.
In 2015, the former Suits actress revealed during an interview that she had purchased a timeless piece of jewellery for a future daughter, and she had even got it engraved with a very special message.
Meghan splashed the cash on a Cartier Tank Française watch shortly after she discovered Suits was renewed for a third season.
"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]," the now-pregnant royal told Hello! magazine.

Prices for the designer watches start at around £5,000 for the two-tone style.
Proving she's ultra sentimental, Meghan continued: "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."

The engraving most likely stands for 'To Meghan Markle from Meghan Markle' to celebrate the Suits milestone, although it could well influence the couple's choice of name for their baby.
Meghan and Harry's baby news was announced on Monday by Kensington Palace with a tweet, which read: "Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019.
"Their Royal Highnesses have appreciated all of the support they have received from people around the world since their wedding in May and are delighted to be able to share this happy news with the public."
The newlyweds are thought to have shared the news with the rest of the royal family on Friday at Princess Eugenie's wedding to Jack Brooksbank at St George's Chapel at Windsor Chapel.
