The couple, who are proud parents to 21-month-old son Archie Harrison, announced on Valentine's Day that their family is expanding.

"We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother," a spokesperson for the pair said in a statement on Sunday, Feb. 14 "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are overjoyed to be expecting their second child."

While many fans are eager to learn more about the duo's little one, both Meghan and Harry are keeping a few details to themselves—like their baby's sex and the former Suits star's expected due date.

The timing of Meghan's pregnancy was extra sweet for many reasons, with the obvious being that she and Harry shared the exciting news on the romantic holiday.

However, the couple paid tribute to the late Princess Diana in a special way. As royal fans will recall, Princess Diana announced she was pregnant and expecting her second child with Prince Charles (aka Prince Harry!) on—wait for it—Feb. 13, 1984.

But Meghan and Harry's timing wasn't the only heartwarming detail about their baby news. To celebrate their growing family, the couple posed for their longtime friend and photographer, Misan Harriman.

According to People, the actress' pregnancy style was riddled with meaning.

For the romantic photo, Meghan looked both elegant and effortless as she laid down on her husband's lap in a flowy, floor-length Carolina Herrera dress. Per the magazine, the simple, yet striking creation was made for her while she was pregnant with Archie.

Of course, this isn't the star's only style statement during her pregnancy. Take a look at her fabulous fashion in our gallery below!
