Meghan Markle explains decision not to follow royal tradition after Archie was born

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's son Archie made his world debut at Windsor Castle at just two days old. It was back in 2019 his introduction to the world was a sharp contrast to that of his cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Princess Kate stuck with royal tradition and posed on the hospital steps outside the Lindo Wing at St Mary's before heading home with her newborn, but Meghan didn't and instead opted for a small photocall a few days later.

The hospital photo steps is something royal fans always look forward to, with Princess Anne, Princess Diana and Sarah Ferguson all posing.

Prince Harry and Meghan's decision received a mix reaction at the time, with some fans disappointed they didn't get to be part of the sweet moment while others understood their desire for privacy.
