The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's baby could end up sharing their birthday with his or her great-grandmother the Queen, or George Clooney.

Meghan has said her first child is due at the end of April or early May.

The Queen turns 93 on April 21, which is also Easter Sunday this year, while Charlotte, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's middle child, celebrates her fourth birthday on May 2.

If Baby Sussex arrives early, he or she might even put in an appearance on Prince Louis's birthday.

Louis, the youngest member of William and Kate's brood, turns one on April 23 - patriotic St George's Day.
