Podcaster Jamie Laing, known for his role in "Made in Chelsea," and his pregnant wife Sophie Habboo brought their joy to the palace during a reception for the King’s Trust on June 25. The couple shared a playful Instagram clip titled "The Royal Baby has arrived," echoing Markle’s viral moment with the same catchy tune, "The Baby Momma Dance" by Starrkeisha.
Habboo showcased a stunning butter yellow Rodarte gown as the couple danced on the palace staircase, drawing laughter and attention. Laing, dressed in a blue suit, cheekily referenced their unexpected filming at the palace with the caption, "They said we couldn’t film in Buckingham Palace…"
