Rare new image of Archie emerges
Three-year-old Archie has been seen in a photo with his mum Meghan Markle, making a rare appearance in the public eye after the photo was shared on social media.
Archie and Meghan were joined by Doria Ragland, Meghan’s mum, on a video call with Full Circle Strategies CEO Jotaka Eaddy and political strategist Donna Brazile.
The toddler was seen on camera sitting on Meghan’s lap, while his grandmother stood behind them.
The image was shared by Duchess Harris, a professor in American studies and political science, and quickly spread online.
While it is unclear what the meeting was about, the photo marks one of Archie’s few appearances since his birth in May 2019.

The meeting and photo also come as Prince William and Kate Middleton prepare to head to the United States on Thursday, with an itinerary including attending the second Earthshot Prize Awards in Boston, Massachusetts.
Coincidentally, Harry and Meghan will also be on the East Coast within days of the Prince and Princess of Wales, as they are due to attend a ceremony in New York to accept the Ripple of Hope award for their stance against “structural racism” in the royal family.
The recognition of the Sussexes also comes amid more racial controversy for the royals.
On Thursday, Queen Elizabeth’s lady-in-waiting Lady Susan Hussey resigned from her royal position for making “deeply regrettable comments” about Ngozi Fulani, the CEO of Sistah Space, an organisation aimed at supporting women of African and Caribbean heritage that are affected by abuse.
