Many people were surprised that Prince William and Kate Middleton didn’t visit Meghan Markle and her son Archie right after she gave birth. It has been reported that they will visit their new nephew a week after he was born. The Queen, Prince Philip, and Markle’s mother Doria Regland have already met Archie.

„It seems a bit strange that William and Kate have not yet been to see Archie. I’m sure for many, it will fee into the recent narrative that Harry and William have grown apart. Of course, it was Harry and Meghan’s decision to move away from Kensington Palace, which does make the logistics a bit more difficult,“ veteran royal reporter and author Phil Dampier told The Telegraph.

During and event at the Cutty Sark in Greenwich, Prince William talked about being excited to welcome the newest royal member into the family, saying: „Obviously thrilled, absolutely thrilled, and obviously looking forward to seeing them in the next few days when things have quietened down.
