Today, Meghan Markle stepped out to visit one of her new royal patronages, the National Theatre (her first of three royal engagements this week), and got a quick glimpse into her future as a mom.

The Duchess of Sussex chatted with young actors at the theater who are putting on a play inspired by War Horse, and the elementary school kids looked excited to be in the presence of Suits star Rachel Zane, not to mention a royal family member.
She also got to watch a performance of the children's play, and from the sounds of it, the kids really took these roles to heart. (When do these tickets go on sale? Asking for a friend.)
The expecting duchess asked the kids if they had a hard time learning their lines and clutched her six-months'-pregnant baby bump as she listened to them talk about their experience of learning to act.
Is this a foreshadowing of baby Sussex's future as a budding thespian? (Hey, a girl can dream.)
