THIS is the reason Meghan Markle isnt wearing her engagement ring

Megan Markle is almost ready to welcome her first child but isn't slowing down on the work front.

And while out and about attending to royal duties, it was spotted that she was without something important - her engagement ring.

The Duchess of Sussex was at several events to promote Commonwealth Day, when she was seen sans ring - and the reason is something all mums-to-be can relate to.

She was experiencing some swelling and decided to leave her engagement ring at home, but kept her wedding band firmly on.

Swelling is a normal part of pregnancy that's caused by additional blood and fluid which the body makes to meet the needs of the baby.

It also affects the  hands, face, legs, ankles, and feet.

Despite this, Meghan was in great form as she enjoyed the day with husband Harry in London. 

The couple took a trip to Canada House in central London, to attend an event showcasing the diverse community of young Canadians living in London and around the UK.

Harry is president of The Queen's Commonwealth Trust, and Meghan was named vice-president last week.

The pair then joined the rest of the royal family at the annual Commonwealth Day Service at Westminster Abbey.

Meghan,  who is eight months pregnant, looked radiant as she sat alongside the Royal family.

With the countdown on to welcoming another royal baby, we're sure she can't wait to meet the little one.
