Obsessed With Archie

The Spare author revealed that Lili is “obsessed” with her older brother.

“The gap between me and William was very similar to Archie and Lili," Harry said during his ITV interview in January 2023. “And to see Lili obsessed with Archie and Archie like, ‘No, no, Lili, I need my space. I need my space now.’ I get it. … I get how irritating the younger sibling can be to the older sibling.”

Family Resemblance

"I think at the moment, I see a lot of my wife in Archie," the duke said in the finale episode of Netflix's Harry & Meghan docuseries, which aired in December 2022. "I see a lot of my mom in Lili. She's very Spencer-like. She's got the same blue eyes. ... Golden-reddish hair."

'Proud' Papa

"My son, my daughter, my children are mixed race, and I'm really proud of that," Harry said in an episode of Netflix's Harry & Meghan. "When my kids grow up and they look back at this moment and they turn to me and say, 'What did you do in this moment?' I want to be able to give them an answer. I think it's such a responsibility as human beings that if you bring a small person into this world that you should be doing anything you can to make the world a better place for them."

Her Morning Routine

Meghan gave a glimpse of her and Harry's "chaotic" mornings with Lili and Archie during a November 2022 episode of her "Archetypes" podcast. "She's a year and a couple of months old [and] in the thick of it — toddling," the duchess said, noting that her daughter had "just started walking."

Later that month, Meghan told podcast guest Mellody Hobson that she wanted her children to be "self-sufficient" in the future.

Chasing Her Dreams

When asked whether she would support Lilibet going into acting someday, the former TV personality told Variety in October 2022, "I would say, 'Great!' When you become a parent, you genuinely want your kids to find the things that bring them complete joy."

She added: "There are so many people that will talk about what opened the door for my children. But it still takes talent and a lot of grit. We're creating multidimensional, interesting, kind, creative people. That's who our kids are."

Major Milestones

Mastering Meditation

During a February 2022 event, Harry told Serena Williams that “aiming for … mental fitness” can be a “bumpy road” while raising two kids, adding, “I've now put in about half an hour, 45 minutes in the morning when it's like, ‘OK, one of the kids has gone to school, the other one's taking a nap.' There's a break in our programs. I either … work out, take the dog for a walk, get out in nature, maybe meditate.”

Tricky Transition

"Someone told H and I: 'When you have one kid, it's a hobby, and two children is parenting,'" Markle told DeGeneres in November 2021. "Suddenly we realized, 'Oh, right.' Everyone talks about what it's like for the second child, but no one talks about the adjustment for the first child when the second one comes along. I think they have this moment of, 'Oh, this is fun. Oh, this how it is now.'"

Spooky Season

“We wanted to do something fun for the kids and then the kids were just not into it at all,” Markle said of Halloween on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in November 2021. “Archie was a dinosaur for maybe five minutes — not even five minutes. Finally, Harry talked [Archie] into putting the [dinosaur] head on, but Lili was a skunk … like Flower from Bambi."

Time for Teething

When Meghan told Ellen DeGeneres that she would do “anything to relieve” her daughter’s teething pain in November 2021, the talk show host jokingly recommended “tequila."

Mixed Emotions

“In June, my husband and I welcomed our second child,” the former actress wrote in an October 2021 letter to U.S. Congress supporting paid parental leave. "Like any parents, we were overjoyed. Like many parents, we were overwhelmed. Like fewer parents, we weren't confronted with the harsh reality of either spending those first few critical months with our baby or going back to work. We knew we could take her home and in that vital (and sacred) stage, devote any and everything to our kids and to our family. We knew that by doing so we wouldn't have to make impossible choices about childcare, work and medical care that so many have to make every single day."
