While the anticipation for the arrival of baby Sussex continues to linger, royal watchers (including us) are sitting tight and anxiously wait for the big announcement. Although we can expect Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby to be born any day now, there is no time to lose as every little bit of royal baby information we can get counts. And at last night’s Time 100 Gala CBS, This Morning anchor Gayle King, who was being honored as one of the most influential people in the world, gave reporters a few thoughts of her own in regards to baby Sussex.

“We all each made an individual vase,” she said. “Then Meghan, at her request, got in touch with an organization that I’ve never heard of, called Repeat Roses, and they were all donated to different charities.” The mom-of-two continued about the royal act of kindness: “It just speaks to who she is. She’s kind. She’s very generous. And a really, really sweet person.”
