Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s baby, Archie Harrison, hasn’t been seen in public since he was just a tiny two-day-old, which has royal watchers wondering when they’ll next catch a glimpse of the newest addition to the royal family.

Baby Archie was born on May 6, at 5.26am, after weeks of waiting and watching by royal fans across the world. 

New parents Harry and Meghan proudly showed off their baby just two days later as they talked of how happy they were to have their son in their arms. 

“He’s just been the dream so it’s been a special couple of days,” Meghan declared at the photocall.

“It’s magic, it’s pretty amazing. I have the two best guys in the world so I’m really happy.”

As her husband held their son, Meghan added: “He has the sweetest temperament, he’s really calm.”

Rumours are now swirling around Archie’s christening: whether it will be the next time we see the baby boy, and whether it could actually have already happened in secret. 

As the Palace has previously announced details of the Cambridge children‘s christenings, and there have been no announcement as yet for Archie, it is unlikely that it’s already occurred. 

Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were all christened two-three months after they were born.

If this length of time is applied to baby Archie, his christening could happen between July and August.
