In London, UK, an emotional King Charles was spotted with tears in his eyes as he finally got to hold his new grandchild, born to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, just three days after the baby’s delivery. This baby is now the couple’s third child. In a truly touching moment, King Charles took the chance to officially announce the name of his grandchild. The newborn has been named Prince.
London, UK — King Charles was visibly emotional, his eyes filled with tears, as he embraced his new grandchild for the first time, three days after Meghan Markle and Prince Harry welcomed the baby into the world. That heartfelt moment was a significant event for the entire royal family.
The reunion and the name announcement have been greeted with widespread happiness and celebration among both the royal family members and the public. This moment symbolizes a strengthening of family ties and the start of a new chapter for the monarchy.
People are expecting to hear more details about the royal family’s celebrations and their plans for the newborn in the coming days.
LONDON — Prince Harry could hardly hold back his excitement. Standing in front of a news camera to announce the birth of his son, he rubbed his hands together, bounced on his toes, and couldn’t stop grinning, not even for a second.
“It’s been the most incredible experience I could ever imagine,” he said, standing in front of the stables at Windsor Castle, where two black horses nodded behind him.
“How any woman does what they do is beyond my understanding, and we’re both absolutely overjoyed,” he said about his wife, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex. He described the duchess as “amazing,” the birth as “amazing,” and the love and support from the public as “amazing” too. Then he turned to leave, so filled with happiness and tired from lack of sleep that he even seemed to thank the horses.
“This little one is just absolutely wonderful, so I’m on cloud nine,” he managed to say.
If much of the world was captivated by the child’s birth, just a few minutes after dawn on Monday, it wasn’t just because of the newborn’s place in the line of succession, seventh in line to the British throne.

It was also because he represents a change for the oldest of institutions. He’s half American, with his mother’s side of the family having ancestors like a bellhop in a Cleveland hotel, a laundry worker in Chattanooga, and a bartender in an Atlanta saloon. And he’s the first multiracial baby in the recent history of the British monarchy, an instant star in a country where multiracial children are the fastest-growing ethnic group.
“We’ve been waiting for him,” said Carol Lengolo, 38, who moved to Britain from South Africa and is raising a son and a daughter in southeast London. She said that she’d set up multiple alerts so her family would know the moment the child was born and that when the news came through at 2:39 p.m., they started screaming and rushed to the television.
“We feel like Meghan is one of us, so we’re supporting her,” she said. “We can’t wait to see what he looks like.”
It’s still not certain whether the newborn, who comes after Harry in the line of succession, will receive a royal title, like the ones given to the three children of Prince William, Harry’s older brother, and William’s wife, Catherine.
