Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s firstborn, Prince Archie Harrison, born on May 6, 2019, has become the center of a growing controversy.
On the day of Archie’s birth, Prince Harry excitedly confirmed the news to the media, announcing the arrival of their baby boy.
However, rumors began to circulate, sparked by Princess Anne, suggesting that Archie was born via surrogate.
Although an announcement regarding this was briefly issued by the palace, it was later taken down.
Adding to the confusion, it has been revealed that Archie exhibits at least two different physical variations – blonde and ginger.
Furthermore, Lady Colin Campbell raised questions about the couple’s children, speculating if they had adopted, borrowed, leased, or hired surrogate children.
If any of these variations were true, it would mean that there are no princes or princesses among their children at Montecito Palace.
However, there is no evidence to suggest that the children have been registered, either in the UK or the USA.
Lady Campbell claimed that an announcement, originating from Kensington Palace, had been released in the early hours of the morning, stating that Archie had been born via surrogate.
Although a typographical error in the announcement was mentioned, suggesting that the website was hacked, screenshots of the announcement exist, and the news spread worldwide.
The initial announcement stated that Meghan had gone into labor in the early hours, but it provided no indication of the time or whether she was still in labor when the announcement was made.
The second announcement clarified that she had delivered a son at 5:26 a.m., more than eight hours before the statement confirming she was in labor was sent.
Both announcements contained grammatical errors, with Meghan being referred to as “Her Royal Highnesses” during the labor announcement.
Moreover, it has been alleged that Archie and his younger sister, Lilibet, are not genuine members of the royal family, as no member of the royal household has reportedly met them.
This raises questions about why they are included in the line of succession.
A recent poll conducted by Express UK indicates that a majority of Britons, 66% of respondents, believe that Prince Harry and his children should be removed from the line of succession.
Only 18% supported their continued inclusion.
The poll, which surveyed 1,624 British adults, found that even Tory and Labour voters were in agreement, with 65% from both parties stating that Prince Harry should be taken out of the line of succession.
Similarly, 65% of Leavers and 67% of Remainers agreed on this matter.
It is believed that Prince Charles did not give his consent for his two youngest grandchildren to have titles, further straining his relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan.
Prince Harry and Meghan’s tendency to push their own narratives has become well-known.
Their actions surrounding Archie’s birth may have been an attempt to force Prince Charles into making their status official.
The King’s decision not to publicly acknowledge his granddaughter’s birthday, as well as Prince Archie’s last month, reflects the strained relationship between them and suggests a change in social media practices going forward.
As the controversy surrounding Prince Archie’s birth continues to unfold, questions about the line of succession persist.
The public’s opinion on whether Prince Harry and his children should remain in the line of succession remains divided, highlighting the ongoing tensions within the royal family.
