Prince Harry munched through a cheeky chicken supper and had “several slow, penetrating hits” of laughing gas while he waited for Meghan Markle to give birth.
Writing in his new memoir Spare, the Duke of Sussex explained the moments leading up to the birth of his he and his wife's firstborn, Archie.
Harry explained how the couple snuck away from Frogmore Cottage in a “nondescript people carrier” to the hospital to “make sure nothing’s wrong” as they waited for the young royal.

Arriving at the hospital, Harry explained how “Meg was so calm.
“I was calm too, But I saw two ways of enhancing my calm.
“One: Nando’s chicken. (Brought by our bodyguards.)
“Two: A canister of laughing gas beside Meg’s bed.
“I took several slow, penetrating hits.

“Meg, bouncing on a giant purple ball, a proven way of giving nature a push, laughed and rolled her eyes.
“I took several more hits and now I was bouncing too.”
But while the Prince had been enjoying the laughing gas, what he might not have predicted was that it was going to be needed in the very near future and that when that point came there would be none left.
He wrote: “When her contraction began to quicken and deepen, a nurse came and tried to give some laughing gas to Meg. There was none left.
“The nurse looked at the tank, looked at me, and I could see the thought slowly dawning: Gracious, the husbands had it all.
“‘Sorry,’ I said meekly.”
Harry explained how the Duchess of Sussex would go on to need an epidural and he began to fear that they may need to enter into a more complex birthing process.
He explained how he feared that Archie had got tangled and may have needed a c-section, but said to Meghan, “Give me everything you’ve got.”
He explained that “she did,” and soon Archie was born.
