Meghan Markle, Prince Harry name royal baby Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor
Meet Baby Archie!
After introducing their newborn son to the world Wednesday, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry hours later revealed Baby Sussex’s name as Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
Following Archie’s birth in the early hours of Monday, oddsmakers began predicting the top name choice, with Arthur being the 5/1 favorite, according to the UK-based betting and gambling company Ladbrokes.
As for Meghan, 37, and Harry, 34, they appear to have adjusted seamlessly to parenthood.
“It’s magic,” Meghan told the media Wednesday. “I have the two best guys in the world, so I’m really happy.”
Harry also shared that he and Meghan are still unsure of whom son Archie looks like most.
“His looks are changing every single day,” beamed the new dad. “He’s already got a bit of facial hair!”
The young royal, who is seventh in line to the British throne, behind Harry, was introduced to other members of the family Wednesday, including great-grandparents Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.
Though Harry’s father, Prince Charles, and brother, Prince William, have not yet met the new arrival, father of three William — who shares sons Prince George, 5, and Prince Louis, 1, and daughter Princess Charlotte, 4, with wife Kate Middleton — quipped Tuesday that he is excited to welcome his sibling to the “sleep deprivation society.”
