Meghan Markle feels sorry for Kate Middleton for one particular reason. And no, it’s not because she is the future Queen of England who will have a lot of responsibilities to deal with one day. Instead, she thinks it’s quite unfair that the Duchess of Cambridge has had to look picture-perfect and pose for media photos only hours after she’s given birth to her three children.

According to Page Six, Markle is one royal family member who has opted out of standing on the steps of the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital to mark the debut of the newest royal bundle of joy. Instead, she and her husband Prince Harry want to announce the birth of their baby on their own terms. They want to enjoy their first few hours as a family of three privately before sharing their joyous news with the world.

However, Prince William and Kate Middleton apparently didn’t have that same option when the Duchess gave birth to the couple’s three children: Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, 4, and 1-year-old Prince Louis. Each and every time Kate Middleton gave birth, her style, hair and makeup team were on hand to make sure she looked as perfect as possible before posing with her baby for the media and the entire public to see.

Markle thinks it’s unfair that her sister-in-law has been forced to stand and wave in front of a crowd of people, despite the fact that she just gave birth moments before. For many first-time moms, it takes several weeks, if not months for them to readjust and feel like their ‘old selves’ again.

Many reports have indicated that Markle plans on having a home birth at her new residence in Frogmore cottage, next to Windsor Castle. Earlier this month, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle released a statement to the press explaining why they won’t be posing in the same fashion that Prince William and Kate Middleton have done before them. It reads, “Their Royal Highnesses have taken a personal decision to keep the plans around the arrival of their baby private. The Duke and Duchess look forward to sharing the exciting news with everyone once they have had an opportunity to celebrate privately as a new family.”
