Arbiter went on, “Harry has decided that he wants to set up his own office, which is fair enough. While he was single, he was living in his comfort zone with his brother and his sister-in-law. But now he’s married, he’s creating his own comfort zone with his wife, and it just makes sense. You can’t have a small staff running the offices of two people. Harry is now moving on and setting up his own office. Nothing unusual in that.”
And on May 6, 2019, Harry became a father. Yes, he and Meghan welcomed their first child – a boy named Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor – into the world. According to a statement released by the palace at the time, a number of the royals – including William and Kate – had “been informed and [were] delighted with the news.”
Acouple of days after Archie was born, William and Kate attended the King’s Cup Regatta and were asked about little Archie. William stated that they were “obviously looking forward to seeing them in the next few days when things have quietened down.” And, more jokingly, he said, “I’m very pleased and glad to welcome my own brother into the sleep deprivation society that is parenting.”
And baby Archie appeared – according to the media at least – to assuage any grievances that the brothers had felt. In June 2019 Nicholl told Entertainment Tonight, “It’s absolutely the case that the brothers did fall out. I was told by a very senior royal source that actually they weren’t talking to each other at one point. I certainly think now that Archie is here, it has probably really helped to improve the relationship. William is over the moon that his brother is a dad.”
As for Kate and Meghan, apparently there was no bad blood between them whatsoever. Nicholls told Entertainment Tonight, “I hear that Kate has made herself available to Meghan if she needs advice, if she needs any help, and Kate said to her, ‘I’m here. I’m here for you.’” So there was no feud between the two women at all, it seems.
