When kids have parents with drastically different accents, it can be fun to see who they take after more. Like Bindi Irwin\u2019s daughter Grace, who has the cutest Aussie accent <\/a>despite her dad Chandler Powell being American. But what about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry\u2019s kids, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4? Their dad is British and their mom American \u2014 so what accent do they have? Markle opened up about how her kids talk on Season 2 of With Love, Meghan, and it sounds like they have the cutest mix of both parents.<\/p>\n

In episode 206, Markle cooks with Chef Clare Smyth. They get to chatting about Markle\u2019s kids, and she revealed that the kids have a hybrid accent, per PEOPLE<\/a>. She shared, \u201cThey both say \u2018zeb-rah\u2019 though instead of zebra.\u201d So cute! I love how kids will pick up these little pronunciation differences, despite growing up and going to school in America. It\u2019s adorable!<\/p>\n

When the cook with their mom, however, it\u2019s all American. \u201cPapa\u2019s not cooking as much,\u201d she added, explaining why the kids don\u2019t have any British terms in the kitchen.<\/p>\n

It makes sense. Growing up as part of the British royal family, Harry always had chefs to cook<\/a> for him. (Plus, the occasional trip to McDonald\u2019s with his mom, Princess Diana!) So, we can imagine why he never developed a love for cooking (I mean, who would in those circumstances?!).<\/p>\n

The Duchess of Sussex also got vulnerable about a difficult time in her and Prince Harry\u2019s life: when they had to be separated from their kids for nearly three weeks due to Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s death in 2022. In episode 203 with Tan France, Markle shared that motherhood is \u201cbetter than I ever expected.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Queer Eye star, who shares sons Ismail, 4, and Isaac, 2, with husband Rob, opened up about not wanting his kids to ever grow up. \u201cI never want my children to leave,\u201d he said, per PEOPLE<\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019re not allowed to get married. Not allowed to leave my house.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll miss them so much,\u201d Markle agreed. \u201cYou want to be the parent who\u2019s like yes, go do it. Go do your thing. Go live that life. But I\u2019m going to miss you so much.\u201d<\/p>\n

When France admitted that he \u201cmight die\u201d without his kids and feels like \u201cmy heart is broken\u201d after not seeing them for a few days, Markle shared how hard it was for her to be away from her kids at the Queen\u2019s funeral, when they were only 3 and 15 months. Markle and Harry were in Europe for charity events shortly before the Queen\u2019s death, and they had to extend their trip to travel to the U.K. when she became ill.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh I know. The longest I went without being around our kids was almost three weeks,\u201d she admitted. \u201cI was\u2026not well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Poor Markle! Going through a family death, navigating the rules of the royal family and being in the public eye, and being separated from your kids at the same time \u2014 we can only imagine how difficult that was for her.<\/p>\n
