Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, formerly British royals, welcomed Archie Harrison in 2019 and Lilibet Diana in June 2021. Despite relinquishing royal titles and residing in California, Prince Harry signed Lilibet’s birth certificate as “The Duke of Sussex,” while Meghan used her full name, omitting her royal title. Archie’s certificate highlighted significant parental titles.
Lilibet’s second name, Diana, pays homage to Prince Harry’s mother and Queen Elizabeth II. In September 2022, following Prince Charles’ succession, Lilibet and Archie became UK royalty. Harry and Meghan emphasized their children’s freedom to choose royal roles.
The couple refrained from using “HRH” titles after stepping back from royal duties, as confirmed by Buckingham Palace. Lilibet Diana met Queen Elizabeth at the June 2022 Diamond Jubilee Celebration.
Featured in a Netflix documentary, Lilibet signifies Meghan and Harry’s commitment to a unique upbringing, echoing Meghan’s desire for a large family based on her childhood.
