As royal reporter Emily Nash says, the royal team is factoring everything "into the decision" this coming week as the birth of baby Sussex approaches. This change in plans hints that the Duchess of Sussex could potentially give birth in the next few days. Still, it's unlikely that the royal couple will reveal when she goes into labor because of their joint decision to break royal tradition and keep the arrival of the baby private.

Until the next baby Sussex update!
