6. Save the Children Birthday Video (May 2020)
For Archie’s first birthday, Meghan read Duck! Rabbit! to him on camera as part of Save the Children’s pandemic campaign. The real show, however, was Archie: wriggling, babbling, page-flipping, and launching books like a baby literary critic. Bonus trivia? Oprah gifted him that very book. Yes, Auntie O knew he’d be a bookworm before he could walk.
7. Oprah Interview Extras (March 2021)
During the Oprah interview, Harry and Meghan shared a soft black-and-white video of Archie running on a beach. There is something about the Sussex family montages that gives the impression that they reside in a dreamy Apple advertisement. One second he’s dashing through the sand, the next he’s under dad’s legs—pure toddler energy, bottled in grayscale.
8. Black-and-White Family Portrait (March 2021)
The day after the Oprah interview aired, photographer Misan Harriman dropped a moody yet cozy black-and-white portrait of Meghan, Harry, and Archie. The photo evokes an intimate yet artistic feel, reminiscent of a family Christmas card mixed with a Vogue editorial. Archie appeared slightly older, more assertive, and yes, his father’s red hair was beginning to show through.
9. The 2021 Christmas Card – Enter Lilibet!
Now we’re talking about a double dose of Sussex baby content. For their holiday card, the family finally introduced baby Lilibet—well, sort of. Meghan lifted her daughter into the air in a Simba-like manner, and we were able to observe the tiniest of side profiles. Archie also made an appearance, sporting red hair and denim that were in perfect harmony with Harry’s attire. A family of four had us in stitches. Our hearts? Melted.
