Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, now has a new playmate, so the little boy will have someone to play with despite being away from his cousins in the United Kingdom. The Duchess of Sussex's best friend, Misha Nonoo, gives birth to a baby boy and Archie is about to have playdates soon.
The British-Bahraini fashion designer and her husband, Mike Hess, announced the arrival of their bouncing baby boy named Leo. "Our lives have been forever changed. We love [him] more than we ever thought possible and cannot wait to share every adventure with [him]," he said, per HOLA! USA.
Archie will soon turn 11 months old, making him almost a year older than Leo. So, it looks like he still has to wait a little longer before they finally get the chance to play together. However, it is not far that these two babies will meet soon when the coronavirus outbreak subsides in the United States.
Meghan Markle and Misha Nonoo met even before the initial became a part of the royal family. It was the time when the 35-year-old designer was starting to make a name for herself as the favorite designer of celebrities and making headlines for her "Insta-show," Refinery 29 noted.
The former actress even attended Misha Nonoo and Mike Hess's wedding in Rome last year and gave a speech at the reception. The couple was also in Meghan Markle's royal wedding with Prince Harry in 2018.
The former Suits star and Misha Nonoo also teamed up for the duchess' Smart Set capsule collection, where she designed a white blouse for a limited collection that would benefit Meghan Markle's patronage. In an interview with Today, Nonoo revealed that Meghan's aim to help other people was something that they bonded over in the early days of their friendship.
Misha Nonoo also commended Prince Harry's wife for her will to make other people's lives better. In their collaboration for Smart Set, she revealed that Meghan is the "consummate professional," who was extremely hands-on in the projects, showing that it was something that she was really passionate about.
There were rumors that Misha Nonoo was the one who introduced Meghan Markle to Prince Harry, as her former husband, Alexander Gilkes, went to the same school the Duke of Sussex did. Recently, reports emerged that Meghan, Harry, and their kid, Archie, moved to Los Angeles to be near their PR teams, managers, Hollywood agents, and her mother, Doria Ragland.
