The couple confirmed their exciting news by sharing a picturesque photo of themselves sat under a tree, with Harry resting his hand on Meghan's head as she lay in his lap cradling her baby bump. A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said: "We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother. "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are overjoyed to be expecting their second child."

In the black-and-white photograph Harry can be seen laying towards the camera with his bare-feet close to the lens.

On closer inspection, Chiropodist Dina Gohil says his toes appear to be a "slightly peculiar in shape" and points out Harry could have "mild bunion deformity".

The health expert, who runs the practice DG Podiatrist and is an ambassador for CCS Footcare, says the apparent condition could have been caused by "high impact training" when Harry served in the military.

She to FEMAIL: "Harry's toes may look slightly peculiar in shape in the photo, but this is down to the angle the foot is in on the ground.

"His feet seem to appear healthy and there is a good arch profile visible.

"However potentially he may have mild bunion deformity, whereby there is a medial deviation of the joint attached to the big toe, making the bony appearance prominent.

"In his case, a likely cause of this condition is the high impact training and action he underwent while in the Armed Forces."

Meanwhile, Harry's bare-foot appearance also caught the attention of royal watchers on social media.
