What Songs Did Prince Harry Put On Meghan Markle’s Birthing Playlist?

When Meghan Markle gives birth, she might be listening to a playlist curated by her husband. Prince Harry has reportedly been working on the soundtrack to his first child’s arrival.

The Duke of Sussex is including songs that relate to their wedding, Express reports. Handel’s “Eternal Source Of Light Divine” was the song Meghan walked down the aisle to in May, so that’s a natural choice. Elton John performed at their wedding, so Harry has supposedly also included the singer’s rendition of “The Circle of Life” while waiting for his little Simba to be born.

Harry might also look to his wife’s playlists for suggestions. When her lifestyle website, The Tig, was still up, a playlist showed that she definitely loves contemporary artists as well. Janelle Monae, Maggie Rogers, Dragonette and more were included.

If her husband keeps looking to their wedding for inspiration, however, the playlist will be filled with blasts from the past. The Telegraph reported that Meghan and Harry’s first dance was to Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.” Meanwhile, her getting ready playlist was filled with 1950s hits, according to People.

The real question is: where will this song list be played? Meghan was rumored to be considering home birth. However, the staff at the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital has reportedly been told not to take April off. The London hospital would make sense if Meghan and Harry are still living in Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace when she gives birth.

However, if the renovations at Frogmore Cottage finish up and the couple moves in before Meghan’s water breaks, she may not give birth at a private hospital. She might instead go to the nearby Frimley Park, an NHS hospital. The former actress is rumored to be in favor of going to a publicly funded institution.

Meghan is expected to give birth in late April or early May.
