Prince Harry divulged details about his family life in an interview with Peoplethis week, including what his and Meghan Markle’s daughter Lilibet “Lili” Diana is like as she inches closer to
her first birthday on June 4. Lili already has a close bond with her brother Archie, who will turn 3 on May 6.
“Her current priorities are trying to keep up with her brother; she took her first step just a few days ago!” Harry said. “Proud papa, here.”
Details about Lili and her emerging personality last came out in December 2021. “She’s such a sweet-natured baby and a real joy to be around,” a source told Us Weekly of Lili. “They’re keeping a note of all her new exciting milestones. It’s amazing how quickly she’s growing.”
In October, a source touched on Harry’s relationship with Lili to Us Weekly: “Harry adores Lili and loves reading her bedtime stories and rocking her to sleep. He has a real magic touch.”
And a source additionally told Us Weekly in June that Archie has loved being a big brother to Lili since the very beginning. “Archie absolutely adores his little sister and gives her lots of kisses,” the source said. “He’s held her with the help of his parents. [He is] such a kind, loving child, and there aren’t any jealousy issues.”
Harry and Meghan shared the first photo of Lili over Christmas. She appeared alongside her big brother Archie.
They wrote in the card:
