Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's son, Archie Harrison, is still getting a chance to socialize with other babies amid this coronavirus pandemic. A source revealed that the Sussex's 11-month-old son loves having FaceTime playdates at their home in Los Angeles.
According to a source, Archie meets up online with other small children through the FaceTime app. However, it's not clear if he has FaceTime chats with his cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, who are all the way in Norfolk as they isolate with their parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Like many parents, Prince Harry and Meghan are focused on making these quarantine days a better time for a baby who still has no idea what's going on in the world. The source also said that Archie is bringing a great deal of joy to Prince Harry and Meghan in spite of this scary time. The family has been settling down in their new home in Los Angeles, after staying in Vancouver, Canada for nearly five months.
According to The Sun, Prince Harry and Meghan planned the big move to Los Angeles for a while now since they learned that Canada would not be ideal for them to start their life as financially independent royals. In Los Angeles, the Sussexes have a big network of support from PR people, to agents and managers.
Meghan also has plenty of friends in the West Coast since she used to work in Hollywood as a TV star. Her mom, Doria Ragland, is also a Los Angeles resident thus it will be easier for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to entrust their son to a family member if they need to be away for work.
Meanwhile, Archie is turning one in May and is officially teething. A source told People that the baby is very happy with the California sunshine and he is pretty much exploring everything around him.
Prince Harry's first-born son has always been described as a happy kid who loves to laugh. Archie is blessed to have hands-on parents that dote on him. The Sussexes want their family life to be as normal as possible and part of their decision to step back from their royal work is so that Archie won't have the media spotlight around him.
Despite this, Archie is still the seventh in line to the throne after his father and cousins. However, Prince Harry and Meghan are raising him to be a private, regular individual.
