Meghan Markle shares adorable first photo of baby Archie as she celebrates first Mother’s Day
MEGHAN Markle has shared an adorable photo of baby Archie as she celebrates her first Mother’s Day.
The new mum posted a sweet snap of her little boy’s feet in what appears to be the garden of her sunny Windsor home to Instagram.
Captioning the poignant image, are the words: “Paying tribute to all mothers today – past, present, mothers-to-be, and those lost but forever remembered.
“We honor and celebrate each and every one of you.
Today is Mother’s Day in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Kenya, Japan, and several countries across Europe.
“This is the first Mother’s Day for The Duchess of Sussex.”
On Monday, the Duchess of Sussex gave birth to her little boy, before presenting him to the world with Prince Harry on Wednesday.
The Anglo-American baby’s arrival happened just in time for American Mother’s Day – unlike the UK’s Mother’s Day which took place in March.
Meghan will be spending it with her own mum, who has been staying with the couple since April.
This is unlike last year, when Doria flew to the UK on May 16 – narrowly missing the important US day – but in time for her daughter’s royal wedding.
It is likely the Duke of Sussex will take the opportunity to celebrate Meghan’s recent entry into motherhood.
Yesterday, he left his wife and baby’s side to attend the nearby Royal Windsor Horse Show, which is in its fifth and final day.
Earlier today, it was revealed that Meghan have Archie the middle name Harrison as a “tribute to her favourite Beatle”.
And we exclusively revealed how Meghan and Harry named Archie after army hero and the Duke’s mentor who got him deployed in Afghanistan.
Prince Harry visited the Netherlands on Thursday to launch the Invictus Games.
In the later stages of Meghan’s pregnancy he was seen still actively carrying out royal duties – including greeting London Marathon runners at the finish line, and attending an Anzac Day service with Kate Middleton.
Just hours after the baby was born at Portland Hospital at 5.26am on Monday, his father announced the good news near to the family home of Frogmore Cottage.
Harry, who was by Meghan’s side during labour, said the “little thing is absolutely to-die-for”.
On Wednesday, he appeared holding his baby son, alongside Meghan, for a photocall in St George’s Hall in Windsor Castle.
The couple have since had to deny they “stage managed” the birth.
