On Friday, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's oldest child turned another year older, and his relatives in the United Kingdom were quick to pay tribute to the toddler on social media. Queen Elizabeth II's Instagram page posted a photo on her Story of Her Majesty and Prince Philip greeting Archie when he was just a baby.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could return to the UK to ‘help modernise the Royal Family’, a royal expert and author has claimed. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex sent shockwaves around the world after announcing in January 2020 that they were stepping away from official royal duties.They subsequently stepped away in March 2020. Since then, they’ve been living in a sprawling mansion in California with their two children, Archie, two, and Lilibet, 10 months, and the couple have gone on to sign multi-million dollar deals with Netflix and Spotify.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to celebrate their son Archie's birthday on Friday 6 May, with the eldest of the couple's two children turning three. Meghan, 40, and Prince Harry, 37, tend to keep their young son out of the spotlight, having only shared a handful of snaps of him over the last three years. The couple, who are also parents to eleven month old daughter Lilibet, will be celebrating Archie's birthday over in California, where they now permanently reside after stepping down as senior royals back in 2020.

Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped back as senior royals in 2020, the couple have remained notoriously private when it comes to their family life. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are parents to Archie, three, and 11 month old Lilibet, have only been pictured as a family once on their 2021 Christmas card. However, after it was announced that 37 year old Harry has pledged to play a season of Polo while in California, we may begin to see more of the adorable family.
