By Karla Adam and Karla Adam London correspondent covering the United Kingdom Email Bio Follow William Booth William Booth London bureau chief Email Bio Follow May 8 at 11:51 AM LONDON — Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, gave the world a first look Wednesday at their son and, after introducing him to the queen, announced his name: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
Speaking to a pool reporter at Windsor, Meghan said, “It’s magic, it’s pretty amazing. I have the two best guys in the world so I’m really happy.”Laughing, Harry said, “I don't know who he gets that from.”Harry said, “He's already got a little bit of facial hair.” Unlike Prince William and Catherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Harry and Meghan did not appear before the cameras just hours after giving birth.
On the day of the birth, palace officials were slow to feed a hungry press, some of whom had been camped out in Windsor for days waiting for news. Before the baby’s arrival, there had been much debate in Britain about whether Meghan and Harry might pursue a home birth attended by a midwife, rather than a hospital birth. The couple has kept their ultimate decision private.
