The Queen beams at Archie in picture celebrating birthday of Meghan and Harry's son

A lovely picture with the Queen, Archie, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry has been shared by the royal family in honour of the tot's third birthday.

The couple's first born turns three today (May 6) and the picture captures the Queen, Prince Philip and Meghan's mum Doria Ragland beaming at newborn Archie.

The message attached says: "Wishing Archie Mountbatten-Windsor a very happy 3rd Birthday!"

Following the post, Harry and Meghan confirmed their attendance of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations with both Archie and Lilibet this June.

However, a Palace spokesperson said only working royals will be appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony after Trooping the Colour.

The photo is a throwback to Meghan and Harry's life in the UK.

The meeting, captured by photographer Chris Allerton, happened shortly after Harry and Meghan held a photocall at Windsor Castle to introduce the world to their son, the Express reports.

During the brief exchange with the photographers at the photoshoot on May 8, 2019, the new parents were asked if Archie was going to meet his great-grandparents.

Meghan then revealed her son had already "bumped into" the Duke of Edinburgh on their way to the photocall.

The Duke and Duchess have since had a daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, who was born on June 4, 2021.

Harry and Meghan left for a new life in North America just before the pandemic struck.

They had tea with the Queen last month when they stopped off in the UK on their way to the Invictus Games.

The Queen is preparing to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee over a four-day weekend from June 2 to June 5.
