Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, despite their tender years, have already encountered considerable scrutiny due to the choices made by their parents, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The couple’s move to the US and their public critique of the royal family have raised questions about the potential effects on their children’s future.
Limited Contact with Royal Family
Harry and Meghan assert that their children are entitled to their royal titles as a matter of “birthright.” However, their fraught relationship with the UK royal family has resulted in minimal interaction between Lilibet, Archie, and their British relatives, including their grandfather, King Charles, and their cousins.
Concerns About Upbringing and Future Resentment
The couple’s relocation to the US has sparked debate about whether this was the optimal choice for their children’s upbringing. Meghan has reportedly expressed concerns that their children might harbor resentment towards her for the consequences of their upbringing, which includes being raised far from their royal heritage and extended family.
