News of Meghan Markle's pregnancy has only just broken, but Australia's Governor-General Peter Cosgrove and Lady Cosgrove wasted no time in being the first to present the parents-to-be with gifts for the Royal baby.
As well as a pair of Akubra hats for the couple, they were also presented with a pair of baby Ugg boots and a kangaroo plush toy.

All eyes were on the royal baby bump as the pair made their arrival, with the Duchess of Sussex donning a minimalist white dress by Australian designer Karen Gee.
Australians far and wide are queuing up in the hopes of getting a glimpse of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — and of course, the baby bump.
Grace and Willow hope to meet Meghan and give her flowers, paintings and a letter.

"(In the letter) We congratulated them on their baby news and asked if they're having twins," they laughed.
The Royal Tour wouldn't be complete without a visit from the woman who famously stole Prince Harry's heart.
Daphne Dunne, the 98-year-old war widow who famously stole a kiss from Harry when he visited in 2015, is camped outside the Opera House waiting for him.
"I don't think he's changed very much," she told The Today Show this morning. When asked what makes him so special, she said: "Oh, he's a natural. He just loves what he's doing. It seems to fit in with everything he says. I'm very happy for him. I'm glad he's got a wife now, and soon a bubba."

Oh — and she also said he smells "quite nice"
Asked what the pair spoke about during their 2015 encounter, she said he was drawn to her late husband's Victoria Cross, which she was wearing.
"He said, 'That's what attracted me over here'. I said, 'Well you should, because your mother, you know, produces them to us'. He said, 'I'm glad I came over.'
"And we were chatting for a little while and they kept saying to him, 'We've got to go, we've got to go', and he didn't worry about that. He just continued on with what he was doing, which was talking to me, and then when he started to go he gave me a kiss on the cheek. And then he came back later and gave me another one because I was lop-sided, and had to have another kiss to put me right."
Asked if she had any gifts for them, Daphne said: "Flowers and that they will be very, very happy. I think that's more important than any gift — to wish them happiness."
