When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex welcomed their first of their bundle of joy into their family, a royal expert has claimed the late Queen Elizabeth’s three-word response was brutal

When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex welcomed their first child, Prince Archie, royal fans were excited to get their first glimpse of the newest member of their family. But the couple were determined to do things their own way when it came to the birth of their son, so Archie’s first introduction to the public was a little bit different from what we have come to expect from a royal birth.

Whilst Kate Middleton had followed in the footsteps of other royal mothers and taken part in a photocall outside the hospital with all three of her newborns, there was a bit of confusion over Archie’s birth.

An initial statement from Buckingham Palace said that Meghan had gone into labour that morning, but another announcement was released swiftly after explaining that she had already given birth to a baby boy. Archie was then first photographed a couple of days later in Windsor Castle and some seriously sweet snaps of the late Queen and Prince Philip with him were released.

However, a royal expert has since claimed that despite the late Queen Elizabeth’s visible excitement and joy at meeting Archie she later made a three-word comment in an official address which he believed indicated that things were not all well in the House of Windsor behind closed doors.
