According to People.com, Markle is 12 weeks pregnant and doing well. The Duchess reportedly sought medical advice about the Zika virus, which can lead to birth defects including microcephaly, a condition that results in small head size due to abnormal brain development. The royal couple is scheduled to travel to Fiji and Toga, where the zika virus has been detected.
