Although Prince Archie has been seen in public sparingly since his birth in May 2019, his surprise appearance on the video call coincided with a significant event. On the same day, Prince William and Princess Kate arrived in Boston for the second Earthshot Awards in December 2022, where Prince Charles expressed his desire to amplify the impact of the Earthshot Prize finalists, inspiring hope for a better future.
Initially shared on Twitter by Duchess Harris, a professor specializing in American studies and feminism, the photo of Archie has since been deleted. However, it's noted that Prince Archie, along with his younger sister Princess Lilibet, will now be recognized as part of the Sussexes, following Harry and Meghan's rebranding and the launch of their new website.
This decision marks a departure from tradition, as the children were initially given the title Mountbatten-Windsor at birth. The use of their royal titles reflects the couple's commitment to their family's unity and their efforts to consolidate their work under one banner.
While Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet seldom appear in public, they occasionally feature in their parents' ventures. For instance, in the Netflix documentary series "Harry's Heart of Invictus," a delightful photo of Prince Archie can be spotted in the background, proudly displayed on Harry's desk.
In another heartwarming moment captured in the Netflix series "Harry and Meghan," Meghan Markle is seen tending to the family's chickens in their California backyard, with baby Lilibet nestled in a baby carrier on her chest. These glimpses into their family life offer a touching insight into the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's journey as parents.
