Searches related to Meghan Markle faking her baby bump have surged by over 4,000%, with a growing group of people convinced that Meghan used a "moon bump" to simulate pregnancy. Some believe that the Duchess of Sussex wore a silicone or foam prop to cover up the couple’s use of a surrogate.
According to the website MoonBumps.com, these props, which are typically used in stage performances, advertising, and retail, are sometimes employed in surrogacy or adoption situations to help build emotional connections. Critics suggest that Meghan wore moon bumps that were improperly sized, leading to her belly changing sizes during her pregnancy with Archie. Some argue that her photos with daughter Lilibet—taken in public moments like a staged preschool pick-up or photoshoots—were carefully constructed, with rumors claiming that a London-based photographer digitally altered the backgrounds.
Royal aides have reportedly described seeing these moon bumps at Frogmore Cottage, both on the bedroom floor and near Meghan’s bed. Diana Epazon, a source on Quora, suggests that Meghan's moon bumps were noticeably deflated and inflated multiple times, producing an audible popping sound, especially when she was filming a video greeting dogs during a royal visit.
Some skeptics believe that women who use surrogates might wear moon bumps to mimic pregnancy and to connect emotionally with the surrogate. They question whether Meghan didn’t mind the inconsistent shape of her bump—sometimes square-shaped, or dropping down to her knees. This has fueled speculation that a bump was left behind at a hotel when she attended a party in New York City with Marcus Anderson.
Additionally, some have pointed out the absence of any public visits to doctors or obstetricians as potential evidence that Meghan might not have been pregnant. Others have raised concerns about her regular use of hair dye and Botox. There are even claims about her supposed pre-birth contracts with her ex-husband, which allegedly included provisions for a postnatal personal trainer and a nutritionist should they have children.
Alison P. Davis recently highlighted some intriguing details about Meghan’s children in her article for *The Cut*. In one scene, she describes an interaction with Archie, who eagerly runs to greet his mother at the school gates. His reaction is full of excitement, and he even leaves his lunchbox behind in his rush to hug her. Meanwhile, Lilibet, described as small and ginger-haired, is said to have a serious expression, prompting Harry to start dancing to entertain her.
In her article, Davis also recounts a poignant moment where Meghan teaches her son about compassion. While out on a school run, Meghan is seen giving a homeless man a backpack filled with food and drinks. This act of kindness was done in front of Archie, helping to teach him about different life circumstances. Meghan and Harry are reportedly teaching their children that some people live in big houses, some in smaller homes, and some people are without a permanent home altogether. They have even created care kits with food to pass out to those in need.
As these speculations continue to spread, questions surrounding Meghan’s pregnancy and her public image grow louder. Would the truth behind her journey into motherhood ever come to light?
