7lbs and 3oz. of royal perfection has arrived!
Prince Harry, 34, and Duchess Meghan, 37, welcomed their first child into the world Monday, May 6.
Master Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor is the name the couple chose for their newborn son. Some find it as a shock that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not choose more of a traditional name.
There had been speculations that the duo was leaning more towards the name Spencer, which is Princess Diana maiden name.
Prince Harry and Meghan’s son could have been addressed The Earl of Dumbarton, taking on one of his fathers lesser titles. However, the pair has been vocal on giving their child more of a regular life.
“We’re just so thrilled to have our own little bundle of joy and be able to spend some precious time with him as he slowly, slowly, starts to grow up,” says Prince Harry.
The new heir is Queen Elizabeth II, 93, 8th great grandchild. That makes Master Archie 7th in line to the monarchy.
“It’s magic,” says Megan. “Its pretty amazing I mean, I have the two best guys in the world. So, I’m really happy.”
We are happy for you as well! Congrats on the arrival of Master Archie!
