The real reason why Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby boy Archie doesn’t have a royal title

You probably heard that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry became parents this week. But does their child have a royal title?

After the photo call, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex introduced the world to their child. They revealed his name- Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

Meghan says he has the sweetest temperament and that he’s really calm. It has been a very special couple of days for her and her husband and they could not be more happy.

The parents decided not to use a title for their first born.

“He will not be styled as Earl of Dumbarton but Master Archie M-W,” Marlene Koenig, a royal historian told E! News. “But I am not surprised as Harry and Meghan want a ‘normal’ life for their kids.”

So to explain this, the royal baby isn’t officially a prince. However, under the rules of George V, Archie could become a prince when Charles becomes a king because that would make him the child of a sovereign’s son.
