Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Cressida Bonas is pregnant with her second child, according to reports. The actress, who married property investor Harry Wentworth-Stanley in 2020, says she used an embryo she had frozen following struggles to conceive her first child, two-year-old Wilbur.
Cressida, 35, is reported to have said: "I am now well into my second pregnancy. Having conceived through IVF the first time, we were fortunate to have another embryo stored away in a freezer... I’ve been battling morning sickness. I’ve never had it before, and now feel like I’ve been swaying on a boat for months.".
Cressida lives in west London with her husband but the couple are now looking to move to a larger home, the Daily Mail reports. The actress's joyful news comes years after she said her "body was failing" her when she struggled to get pregnant. Yet, it is understood a specialist told the couple "there was nothing fundamentally wrong".
Writing in The Sunday Times, Cressida had said: "I spent time and money on reflexology, nutritionists, acupuncture and psychics…Even a German healer who speaks to angels. I heard nothing, not a squeak. "My mind was on a constant worry loop and my obsession with getting pregnant became overwhelming, No matter how many Mystic Megs I saw or expensive supplements I took, nothing was working, and I felt as if my body was failing me.".
But in July 2022, Cressida, also a model, confirmed she had fallen pregnant after undergoing IVF, and she gave birth to Wilbur in November of that year. Now, she and her property investor husband, from a family of Hertfordshire aristocracies, are preparing for their second.
