An old video clip featuring British actor Idris Elba discussing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s son, Archie, has recently gained attention online.

In the video, Elba is asked if he has met baby Archie, to which he responds with a firm “No.”

This resurfaced clip has sparked curiosity among social media users, who have begun questioning when the actor made these remarks.

Royal author Angela Levin, who recently published a book on Queen consort Camilla, retweeted the clip with the caption, “That’s very odd.”

This has further fueled speculation and discussion surrounding Elba’s comments.

One online user expressed their admiration for the actor, stating, “No one has, oh I love him for that, and Luther, given his history with the Prince’s Trust, I’m guessing he’s definitely not a fan of Meghan.”

Another user added, “Bless him, Idris had a grant from the Prince’s Trust to be able to begin his acting career.

He’s more connected to the King than Henry.”

Elba, a London-based actor, has also revealed details about his involvement in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding reception at Windsor.

According to Elba, Meghan insisted on taking control of the musical entertainment for the event.

She provided him with a playlist, specifying the songs she wanted him to play during his set.

Elba explains, “Meghan had sent me a playlist, so I knew what she wanted already.”

When asked about the most stressful aspect of the wedding, Elba candidly responded, “The wedding, no doubt.”

He emphasized the significance of the occasion, comparing it to his cousin’s wedding, stating, “This wasn’t like my cousin’s wedding.

This was a big, big deal.”

Elba, known for his role in the celebrated US crime drama The Wire, expressed the pressure he felt to ensure that Prince Harry and Meghan had a great time at their reception.

In April, during a segment on Meghan Markle’s wedding playlist, the team at Channel 9’s Today show made some surprising references to rap music.

They discovered that Markle had requested Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s 1999 hit “Still Dre” to be played at her wedding reception.

Entertainment reporter Brooke Boney jokingly asked, “Do you reckon Meghan’s still got love for the streets?”

Co-host Ali Langdon added, “She still keeps it real, doesn’t she?”

The unexpected knowledge of the hip-hop classic displayed by fill-in host Charles Croucher left Brooke taken aback but amused.

Idris Elba’s revelation about Markle’s song choice adds another layer to the discussion surrounding Archie’s birth.

It has been reported that Prince Harry was determined to keep the details of Archie’s birth as private as possible.

This quest for secrecy allegedly breached an unwritten contract between the royals and the public, who were eager to learn all the details about the new royal baby.

Rebecca English sheds light on the behind-the-scenes tensions, revealing that officials involved in the process were reduced to tears of frustration and despair.

The usual protocol following a royal birth involves the father, mother, and newborn posing on the steps of the hospital, surrounded by well-wishers and photographers, and answering a few questions before departing.

However, the Sussexes wanted to deviate from this tradition, according to Nickel.

When Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was born on May 6th, 2019, Prince Harry and Meghan managed to surprise the press with the timing of his arrival.

They welcomed their son in London’s private Portland hospital even before the palace press office had confirmed that the Duchess was in labor.

Two days later, the couple participated in a brief photo opportunity with only one reporter allowed to ask pre-approved questions.

The controlled nature of this interaction further highlighted the growing gap between public expectations of Prince Harry and his perceived obligations.

The resurfacing of Idris Elba’s clip discussing baby Archie, along with the revelations about Meghan’s song choice and the secrecy surrounding Archie’s birth, has generated significant interest and speculation.

As social media users continue to dissect the details, the public remains captivated by the ongoing narrative surrounding the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
