Prince Harry, Meghan Markle’s Son Not On Royal Family Website Like George, Charlotte?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their first child, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, on May 6. Prior to his arrival, the Duke and Duchess announced that their son will be living a private life.

The royal couple also revealed after Archie’s birth that they have decided not to give him a royal title. But the royal youngster received a courtesy title and is referred to as Master Archie.

On the online forum site Quora, royal fans are wondering why the 6-month isn’t included on the royal family’s official website. Some of them think that this is because Archie is living a relatively more private life than his cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

But royal fan Seren Verch Dafydd, a former student from the Ohio State University, clarified that Archie is actually featured on the royal family website. But if he wasn’t it may simply be due to the fact that he isn’t a working royal.

“The members of the royal family shown on the home page, with the exception of Prince William’s children are all working royals - that is they undertake official duties for HM the Queen. I expect that Prince William’s children are included because in the top five places in the succession. Princess Anne’s children and are not listed there, nor are Prince Andrew’s or Prince Edward’s children,” she said.

Samantha Andrews, a book lover, also said that Archie is on the royal family website. However, she doesn’t understand why some people think that he should be there.

“As if he’s an exhibit in a zoo rather than a human baby with a right to a private childhood, is beyond me,” she said.

Linda Merrell, from the University of Texas, said that if Archie isn’t on the website this could only mean that it was Prince Harry and Markle’s decision not to have him included there. It isn’t true that he’s not on the website because the royal family favors his cousins over him.
