Following the news yesterday that a third royal baby was on the way from Prince William and his wife Kate, Prince Harry has been quick to react to the exciting news.

The couple announced the news on social media yesterday as Kate, who suffers from extreme morning sickness was forced to pull out from a public engagement.

Kensington Palace tweeted, 'The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child' followed by a full statement which read, 'Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child.'

It continued, 'The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news.

'As with her previous two pregnancies, The Duchess is suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Her Royal Highness will no longer carry out her planned engagement at the Hornsey Road Children's Centre in London today. The Duchess is being cared for at Kensington Palace.'

Prince Harry, who was in Manchester yesterday (4th September) to meet some of those helping those affected by the Manchester Arena bombing, was asked how he felt about the future new addition to the family.

Speaking to the press he said the news was "fantastic, great!" Continuing "I'm very, very happy for them."

He also explained that while hasn't seen Kate for a while, he thinks she "she is OK" despite suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge aren't the only celebrity couple to expect a baby this year.
