The arrival of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s first child, Archie Harrison is a momentous royal event for a plethora of reasons. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex aren’t strangers to causing a stir – from their protocol-breaking announcement to Meghan’s powerful body positivity message. Yet Baby Sussex’s birth has been significant for an unexpected reason: ending the persistent rumours of a feud between Meghan and her sister-in-law The Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton.
“Meghan and Kate will be spending a lot more time together,” a palace insider told Us Weekly. “Now that they’re bonding over motherhood, they’ve become closer than ever.”
The outlet additionally reported that Meghan is planning to take Archie to the U.S. when he’s able to fly. “For Meghan, it’s just as important for Archie to learn about her family history as it is for him to learn about his royal ancestors, so she plans to go on a trip to L.A. with him once she’s comfortable taking him on a plane,” a source said.
The littlest royal got to meet his aunt Kate Middleton yesterday. The Daily Mail‘s royal correspondent Rebecca English tweeted that both Prince William and Kate visited Meghan and Archie. “Just to confirm that William & Kate visited their new nephew, #ArchieHarrison, at Frogmore Cottage today after #PrinceHarry returned from Oxford,” she wrote. “Their children weren’t with them, however, so it will be a little while yet before George, Charlotte and Louis meet their new cousin.”
