The world—or at least the world's British royalty-observing fans—is readying for the royal birth. In a public statement Thursday, Megan Markle and Prince Harry made it abundantly clear they want the birth to be as private as possible. The public will be alerted when Meghan is in labor, but beyond that do not expect Kate-like appearances-with-infant on the steps of a hospital. And maybe do not expect a hospital at all; Meghan may opt for a home birth.

The Daily Beast's senior editor Tim Teeman, royal reporter Tom Sykes, and assistant managing editor (and diehard Meghan fan) Tamara Best convened to discuss all matters royal baby.
