Meghan Markle and Prince Harry announced that
they welcomed a beautiful baby boy into the
world on Monday, May 6, 2019.
But if speculation on the internet is to be
believed, little Archie may have actually
been born two weeks earlier.
This theory stems from Meghan and Harry's
meeting with the press inside Windsor Castle
on Wednesday, May 8, during which time they
introduced their firstborn son, Archie Harrison
Mountbatten-Windsor, to the masses.
While giving everyone a peek at their precious
little one, Harry responded to a question
about which parent baby Archie looks like
the most, telling the media,
"Everyone says that babies change so much
over two weeks, so we're sort of monitoring
how this changing process happens over this
next month really."
Prince Harry continued to talk about his baby
bundle of joy:
"But his looks are changing every single day
so who knows."
"Parenting has been amazing.
It's only been what two-and-a-half days, three
days but we're just so thrilled."
It could be that Harry's saying it's too early
to tell just exactly who their son will take
after in appearance.
But, as reported by The Sun, some people thought
that Harry's comments may have actually been
a slip-up and that he'd just accidentally
revealed that his baby wasn't born two days
earlier - but rather two weeks earlier.
Twitter users immediately fired off:
"Did Harry just say the baby 'has changed
over the last two weeks?'"
And,
"Harry just said 'babies change a lot in two
weeks!'
Slip of the tongue."
"He's already got a little bit of facial hair
as well."
As noted by SheKnows, if Archie was actually
born two weeks before his introduction at
Windsor Castle's St. George's Hall, he could've
been brought into the world around Easter
Sunday, April 21.
That same day, Meghan was noticeably absent
from the Easter service, though Harry, his
brother Prince William, and Duchess Kate Middleton
all attended, as reported by Harper's Bazaar.
About a week later, it was reported that Queen
Elizabeth II had visited Meghan at her home
at Frogmore Cottage, via People magazine.
And, according to SheKnows, this had many
theorizing that Meghan had already had her
baby.
But we doubt any of this conjecture about
baby Archie's alleged April birth has any
to truth to it.
Just because Meghan and Harry had previously
expressed that they'd wanted to keep the details
around the birth private, per BuzzFeed News,
it doesn't mean they'd straight-up lie about
when their baby was born.
"He's just been the dream, so it's been a
special couple days."
Like many new parents, Harry probably couldn't
quite tell who Archie most looks like.
Plus, while we're sure Meghan and Harry have
a trusted team around them, it'd be awfully
tough to orchestrate a private birth without
anyone finding out.
They are a part of the royal family, after
all.
As for Meghan missing out on the Easter service,
we'd guess that she just didn't want to attend
because she was due to give birth at any moment.
As we know from Harry's meeting with the press,
via Sky News, their kiddo was quote, "a little
bit overdue," so Meghan may have been taking
every caution regarding her baby's impending
arrival.
And the Queen's visit with Meghan may have
just been to see how things were going for
the mother-to-be.
"It's been the most amazing experience I could
ever possibly imagine."
Regardless of the exact day that baby Archie
was born, all that matters is that he's healthy
and that both parents and baby are doing well.
And, by the sound of things, that seems to
be just the case.
Meghan told the press days after giving birth,
"It's magic.
It's pretty amazing, and I have the two best
guys in the world, so I'm really happy."
We couldn't be happier for the royal couple!
