ARCHIE REVEALED

Meghan and Harry Post One-Minute Video of Archie Harrison to Instagram

The world may be going to hell in a handcart, but baby Archie Harrison made his big debut on Instagram this morning. But one question is unresolved: is the little prince a ginger?

What a cutie!

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have fiercely protected the privacy of their infant son, but today the dam burst, as they posted an adorable, minute-long video of themselves with baby Archie Harrison.

The video, first shared as an Instagram story, showed the couple walking into South Africa Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s house with Archie in Meghan’s arms, and will no doubt be enough to satisfy even the Sussexes most ardent fans.

Journalists covering the royal trip have been fervently praying that Archie would be making an appearance, and the carefully curated photocall with the archbishop, captioned “Archie Meets the Arch” on the official Sussex Royal feed, will go a long way to improving relations between the Sussexes and the press.

Their meeting with the archbishop was witnessed by journalists, many of whom recorded the footage of Archie and posted it immediately to social media.

An official press pool photographer was also present for the meeting with Tutu.

Also present was Tutu's daughter Thandeka Tutu Gxashe, who could be heard laughing and joking to Archie: “You like the ladies. He’s going to be a ladies’ man.”

Inevitably, some of the most intense discussion sparked by the new pictures revolved around junior’s hair color.

The Royalist’s official position is that while it is to soon to make a definitive call, early indications are that yes, the baby is strawberry blond at the very least.
