Meghan Markle And Prince Harry Just Released The Cutest Video Of Archie Reading For His Birthday
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have released a sweet video of their son Archie, to mark his first birthday.
The tot - whose full name is Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor - turned one on 6th May.
In a collaboration with Save The Children, the couple marked their only child's birthday with a video of the Duchess of Sussex reading Archie his favourite book Duck! Rabbit!
In the sweet video, which was filmed by Prince Harry in California last week, Archie can helping his mother turn the pages of the book while the former Suits actor reads her son the story animatedly.
Harry can be heard chuckling behind the camera and then joining his wife to make 'quack quack' duck sounds as they act out the parts in the book.
While almost at the end of the book, the one-year-old gets a bit impatient and wriggles around on his mother's lap before picking up a new book to read and then... immediately dropping it to his father's amusement.
When the story does eventually finish Meghan and Harry both cheer for joy as the Duchess adorably cuddles and kisses her happy son who begins chatting away.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex read the story to join in with the charity's Save With Stories initiative, which aims to raise money for vulnerable children amid the Coronavirus pandemic.
A spokesperson for the couple, who are quarantining in Meghan's native of Los Angeles where they have been seen delivering food packages to vulnerable adults, said they wanted to mark their son's first birthday by highlighting this important issue.
They were encouraged to do so by Jennifer Garner, who spearheaded the iniaitive in the US, and is a friend of Meghan's.
'The family is participating in the campaign across both the US and UK to help bring much-needed support to children who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic,' their spokesperson said.
'As they celebrate this family moment, the Duke and Duchess wanted to continue to raise awareness around the urgency of bringing food and learning resources to millions of children.'
