Shillong, March 10: Buckingham Palace added the names of children of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to the list of royal titles.
The children will now formally be known as Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet of Sussex. The succession list on the royal family website was updated to reflect the change a day after Harry and Meghan first referred to their daughter Lilibet as Princess, following her christening ceremony in the US.
Earlier the children were listed on the website as Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor. Archie and Lilibet gained the right for prince and princess after their grandfather, King Charles III, acceded to the British throne.
“The children’s titles have been a birth right since their grandfather became monarch. This matter has been settled for some time in alignment with Buckingham Palace,” a spokesperson said.
Harry and Meghan’s son is 3-year-old while daughter is 21-month-old.
