Meghan – who is also mum to three-year-old Lilibet – recently talked about her experience as a parent on her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder.
In a recent episode featuring Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd, Meghan opened up about having pre-eclampsia after giving birth to one of her children.
Pre-eclampsia is a serious condition that can happen during or after pregnancy, and it’s usually marked by high blood pressure and protein in the urine.
“We both had very similar experiences – though we didn’t know each other at the time – with postpartum, and we both had preeclampsia. Postpartum preeclampsia,” Meghan said.
“It’s so rare and so scary. And you’re still trying to juggle all of these things, and the world doesn’t know what’s happening quietly. And in the quiet, you’re still trying to show up for people – mostly for your children – but those things are huge medical scares.”

In response, Whitney shared that she would “never forget” how Meghan looked shortly after giving birth to Archie.
“I mean, I’ll never forget the image of you after you delivered Archie, and the whole world was waiting for his debut,” she said.
“I was either just becoming or about to become a new mum, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, how is this woman doing this? How is this woman putting on heels and going and debuting a child in this, you know, beautiful outfit in front of the entire world?'”
