The whole world was riveted with delight as Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex introduced their newborn son yesterday.

The adorable Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor is seventh in line to the throne. When his grandfather Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales, becomes King, the newborn could become His Royal Highness Prince Archie of Sussex. It’s all magnificent, and perhaps uncomfortable for the boy’s father, who found it difficult growing up as Prince Harry under the weight of royal tradition. He preferred being called Captain Wales while an Army Officer, then chose to marry an American actress and divorcée. Prince Harry and Meghan are fond of breaking with tradition.
