Harry & Wills’ pal the Duke of Westminster is expecting 1st baby with wife – months after couple’s Kate-inspired wedding
A "DELIGHTED" Duke and Duchess of Westminster have announced they are expecting their first child.
Longtime pal of Prince Harry and Prince William, Hugh Grosvenor, is set to welcome his first baby with wife Olivia in the summer.
A spokesman for the couple, who married last June, said on Wednesday: "The duchess is expecting a baby in the summer.
"The couple are delighted with the news and are very much looking forward to starting a family together."
The duke, one of the UK's biggest landowners, is a close friend of both the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, and godfather to Prince George and also reportedly to Prince Archie.
Wills acted as an usher at his wedding in Chester Cathedral last year but Harry mutually agreed with the groom he would not attend.

Hugh, once considered one of the country's most eligible bachelors, became an instant billionaire when he inherited his title and control of the historic Grosvenor Estate aged 25, following the death of his father from a heart attack in 2016.
His property company, Grosvenor Group, owns hundreds of acres of land in Mayfair and Belgravia, as well as major city centre developments such as Liverpool's One shopping centre.
In 2020, the duke donated £12.5 million to the UK's Covid-19 relief effort including funds for NHS Charities Together and for medical research and development.
