Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor (born 6 May 2019) is the son of Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. A great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II, he is seventh in the line of succession to the British throne.

Birth and family

Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor is the son of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. He was born at 05:26 BST (04:26 UTC) on 6 May 2019 at the Portland Hospital in London.[1][2] Several landmarks were illuminated in different colours to mark the birth, including Niagara Falls, the CN Tower and the London Eye.[3][4][5] His name was announced on 8 May 2019.[6] He was baptised wearing the royal christening gown by the Archbishop of Canterbury on 6 July 2019 in the Private Chapel of Windsor Castle.[7]

Archie Mountbatten-Windsor is descended from the British royal family on his father's side and from the American working class on his mother's side.[8] He is a citizen of both the United Kingdom and of the United States.[9][10]

Title and succession

A great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II,[11] Archie Mountbatten-Windsor is seventh in the line of succession to the British throne.[8] He is also heir apparent to his father's Dukedom of Sussex, Earldom of Dumbarton, and Barony of Kilkeel.[11][12]

Because the Duke of Sussex is not the eldest son of the Prince of Wales,[13] his son is neither a British prince nor does he have the style "Royal Highness".[11] His parents had the option of using one of Prince Harry's subsidiary titles, such as Earl of Dumbarton, as a courtesy, but they decided instead that he would be styled as Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor,[14][15] in accordance with their wish that he grow up as a private citizen.[16][17]
