But now, as the couple return to the UK, Kensington Palace have shared a never-before-seen picture of pregnant Meghan to their Instagram account, revealing Prince Harry took the photo.

The cute new photo shows Meghan cradling her growing baby bump on the last day of the tour at Redwoods Forest in Rotorua. The message accompanying the photo read, 'A message from The Duke and Duchess of Sussex: “Thank you New Zealand for the most wonderful last week of our tour. It has been a privilege to meet so many friendly Kiwis. Australia, Fiji, Tonga and NZ - we leave feeling inspired and reminded of how every single one of us can make a difference.” ‘The rain that refreshes the parched ground, is made up of single drops’ - Kate Sheppard.'

After the extremely busy 16-day tour, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have now returned to the UK.
