Meghan Markle has shared a new picture of her son Prince Archie to mark his sixth birthday today. The picture shows the youngster with his back to the camera as he looks out to sea. There is a beautiful orange sunset in the background, with his face perfectly positioned where the sun is.
Sharing the image to her 2.8million Instagram followers, Meghan said: “Our son. Our sun. Happy 6th birthday to Archie!
“Thank you for all of the love, prayers, and warm wishes for our sweet boy. He’s six! Where did the time go?
“(And for all of you who came to celebrate with us at his party last weekend, thank you for making his birthday so incredibly special ❤️)
The young royal was born whilst the Duke and Duchess of Sussex lived in the UK, with the family moving to America shortly before his first birthday in 2020.
Born on May 6, 2019, the couple showed their newborn son to the world during a photocall at Windsor Castle two days after his birth.
Archie is thought to be celebrating his birthday at home in California with Meghan and his sister, three-year-old Lilibet. Prince Harry is set to spend the day separate from his son, with the Duke of Sussex travelling to Las Vegas.
Harry, 40, will take part in conversations hosted by Dr Tessy Ojo, the CEO of the Diana Award.
Despite largely keeping their children out of the spotlight, Meghan has shared frequent pictures of both Archie and Lilibet to her Instagram account this year.
The 43-year-old, who rejoined Instagram back in January, has delighted fans with updates on her two little ones – including Lilibet, who will turn four next month.
Although he was born in Britain, Harry has recently shared that he may never bring his wife and children back to the UK after failing to overturn a High Court decision that had downgraded his security after he stopped being a working royal.
