Meghan Markle shared insight into Archie and Lilibet's adorable bond in rare interview

Meghan Markle has shared the adorable bonding relationship between her and Prince Harry ’s two children, Archie and Lilibet, in a rare interview.

The Duchess of Sussex has offered a small insight into her family life with Harry and their children.

This comes as earlier this week, the couple delighted fans when they shared a brand new snap of Lilibet to celebrate her first birthday.

The picture was taken at her first birthday party in London, when her parents were over to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee.

Back in November last year, Meghan opened up about her children Archie and Lilibet and their sibling relationship for the first time on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Prince Harry and Meghan welcomed their second child, Lilibet, named after the Queen’s childhood nickname, in June 2021.

Since they have kept their home life in California private.

But in the rare interview from last year, Meghan chatted openly about her young children and revealed their adorable bond.

Ellen asked Meghan about her son Archie and whether he was a good big brother.

The Duchess of Sussex said: "He loves being a big brother!"

"Someone told H (Harry) and I that when you have one kid it's a hobby, and two children is parenting.

“Suddenly we realised, oh right, everyone talks about what it's like for the second child, but no one talks about the adjustment for the first child when the second one comes along.

“So I think they have that moment of, 'Oh, this is fun...oh, this is how it is now'."

On the show, Meghan also shared a new snap of Archie at their California home. Dressed in jeans, a grey t-shirt and yellow wellies, the youngster was feeding the family’s chickens in their garden.

Meghan also revealed that during Halloween that year, the couple were more excited for the fancy dress than their kids were.

Meghan said: "We wanted to do something fun for the kids and then the kids were not into it at all. Archie was a dinosaur for maybe five minutes.

“Still not even five minutes, Harry talked him into putting the head on. But Lilibet was a skunk and it was so cute. She was the flower from Bambi."
