The reveal also confirms that the Duke and Duchess did not welcome their child at St. Mary’s Hospital like Kate Middleton and Princess Diana. Little Archie’s birth place was the perfect location for his parents to welcome him in private. The hospital is a private maternity ward, that specialized in Women and Children’s Health. Archie’s 'reveal' comes in the heels of Prince Charles' first visit of the royal baby at Frogmore Cottage. The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall met their new grandson for the first time on May 16.
The royal pair didn’t have a chance to meet him when he was born, due to their royal tour of Germany. Archie has also had royal meetings with his great-grandmother the Queen and uncle and aunt Prince William and Kate Middleton. The youngest member of the royal family made his grand debut to the world, on May 8 – two days after his birth.
