Prince Harry and Meghan Markle release christening photos of baby Archie after relatively secret ceremony
On Father's Day, the royal family shared a photo of Archie gripping the index finger of his father, Prince Harry, in the first snapshot of the royal baby's face since his birth. Within hours, the Instagram photo garnered over 1.5 million likes and thousands of appreciative comments.
Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, had received criticism for keeping baby Archie out of the public spotlight, including conducting the baptism in relative secrecy.
"The original Royal Christening Robe, made of fine Honiton lace lined with white satin, was commissioned by Queen Victoria in 1841 and first worn by her eldest daughter," the post said."It was subsequently worn for generations of Royal christenings, including The Queen, her children and her grandchildren until 2004, when The Queen commissioned this handmade replica, in order for the fragile historic outfit to be preserved, and for the tradition to continue.
