Nobody knows that better than the British royal family who are constantly followed by photographers and as adults have to accept that they will always be in the public eye, photographed and scrutinized.

 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who welcomed their first child son Archie in May 2019, have been careful to limit the photos that are published of him.

Usually, they are not sharing any details about Archie – but recently, his father revealed a fact no one knew about…

Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was born on 6 May 2019 at the Portland Hospital in London.

Today, he is sixth in the line of succession to the British throne. Following Royal Family tradition the couple released the first image of the sweet boy on Instagram, two days after his arrival in 2019.

Alongside pictures of a beaming Prince Harry holding his son and arm in arm with Meghan, the post read: “Today The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to share their first public moment as a family.

They then followed the post up with a picture of the Queen meeting her new grandson alongside Harry and Meghan’s mom Doria Ragland revealing his full name Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

Two months after his birth, Archie was christened by the Archbishop of Canterbury, during a private ceremony in the chapel at Windsor Castle.

The little toddler wore the royal christening gown and was christened with water from the River Jordan. Harry and Meghan kept to traditions – but refused to make the identities of Archie’s godparents public.

In September 2019, the couple would delight fans again by releasing a series of images from their time in South Africa to meet with Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

“Thank you, Archbishop Tutu, for your incredibly warm hospitality, Archie
