    Meghan recently let slip to a well-wisher her first child is due 'at the end of April or early May' during a visit to Birkenhead. 
    Speaking at Buckingham Palace today, Mr. Weston, President of charity DEBRA, said he and the duke talked about wound healing and a new laser treatment to deal with scar tissue.
    He added, 'It was wonderful to be invited to these celebrations to mark 50 years since the Prince of Wales' investiture.
    'I was seven years old at the time so I've got a lot to thank him for - such as the day off school and the jelly and ice-cream at the street party. I watched it at my grandmother's house in our village called Nelson.'
