New 'Archie' Photo Posted

KingstonsMom — Sun, 12 May 2019 14:23:26 GMT

Meghan and Harry have posted an adorable new photo of baby Archie Harrison today, believed to have been taken at the couple's home, Frogmore Cottage in Windsor.

The adorable single image shows two tiny feet being gently held by a hand, believed to be the Duchess of Sussex's, with forget-me-nots - Princess Diana's favourite flower - clearly visible in the background.

The photograph celebrates Mother's Day, which is being marked in the US and other countries around the world today.

@KingstonsMom

Not a mama, but those perfect pink toes melt my heart.

What a precious photo and sentiment.

They must be truly over the moon with that little angel.

Thanks for posting!

@KingstonsMom I'm curious. Are you British? The reason I ask is because I used to work with Brits, New Zealander, Australian, Canadians. The Brit was a Wing Commander, as was the New Zealander and Australian. The Brit had a secretary. They all worked out of their Embassies with me at the Pentagon. The Canadian was a Sergeant. Wing Commander is the equivalent of the US version of Lt Colonel. My bosses were Lt Colonels and one Major, USAF.

They spelled favorite (our US version as favourite, like you always spell it).

I've always had a near and dear place in my heart for people who (especially) spell the word that way because it makes me think of a time when I was very young, married and my late husband and I were just starting out our wonderful journey.

It's interesting, because when you work with people from (what some still call "the Mother Country") Ha! you realize how the US English language takes parts from many countries to make up OUR language.

Just curious, don't mean to pry.

I don't think that is a new born in the picture.

@cherry You make a very good point. Something is odd with this picture. Why not show the face?

It is a beautiful picture and there might not be any deception at all . It could be a photo taken at any time of any one.

I am not suggesting there is any trickery involved

Don't know why they would post a fake 'feet' picture on their offical Sussex Royal Instagram account, claiming it's Meghan's hand and Archie's feet, but okay......

The Palace 'oversees/approves' (or not) the Royal's Instagram accounts.

I hope they do that same photo with dad's hand too for Father's Day. That's a special photo. Good idea!

Did it actually say it was of Meghan and Archie?

Re: New 'Archie' Photo Posted

@cherry

Yes, it's in the first two paragraphs of my OP.

@KingstonsMom I guess it must be then. It looks really like an older baby to me

@fthunt

For privacy. Harry and Meghan are big on privacy and not adhering to Royal protocol.

The same reason they aren't releasing any information regarding where he was actually born nor who her/his medical team was, which is usually mentioned in the birth announcements that the Palace issues.

That information was listed in the Palace birth announcements for all of William & Kate's births as well as Harry and William's births.

I like the feet and hands; don't like how blurry the flowers in the background are. If they were sharper, they'd be pretty.
