In May 2019, Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, welcomed their firstborn, Archie.
However, the couple decided to break from tradition and celebrate the expansion of their family more privately.
This deviation from custom led to confusion both inside and outside the royal household.
In his memoir, “Spare,” published in January, the Duke of Sussex recalled the birth of his son.
He described how they left the hospital within two hours of Archie’s birth, bypassing the customary press photocall.
Instead, they quietly returned to Frogmore cottage, their new residence, without the public’s knowledge.
The official announcement of Archie’s birth came much later, leaving Harry bewildered.
He expressed his frustration, recalling a disagreement with Sarah Latham, a renowned public relations representative who had joined the Sussex household.
Harry emphasized the need for a dramatic and suspenseful story to keep people engaged, even if it meant deviating from the truth.
Hours later, Harry publicly confirmed the birth, standing outside the stables at Windsor.
He reassured the world that both mother and baby were healthy.
The following day, the couple revealed their son’s name and appeared at Windsor Castle for a photo call.
Initially, it was believed that they had followed the traditional royal birth tradition of posing on the steps outside the Lindo wing, as Princess Diana and Princess Kate had done.
However, Megan later revealed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that the deviation from custom was due to the royal family’s decision not to grant Archie the title of Prince.
According to Megan, the traditional photo call was not a procedure they had access to, as it was part of the spin to deny Archie the title.
She expressed her frustration, believing that if the truth had been shared, people would have understood the decision.
Instead, the royal family chose to keep it under wraps, causing further damage to their image.
This revelation raises questions about the credibility of Harry’s account.
Some may find it difficult to believe that the story makes sense.
If the allegations are true, why not provide concrete evidence instead of mere words?
