Meghan Markle shares new picture of son Archie on his sixth birthday

The Duchess of Sussex has shared a new photograph of her and Prince Harry's son Archie to mark his sixth birthday.

The picture shows Archie's back as he watched a vibrant orange sunset.

Meghan captioned the image: "Our son. Our sun," as she wished happy birthday to her eldest child.

"Thank you for all of the love, prayers, and warm wishes for our sweet boy. He's six! Where did the time go?," she added.

The duchess also thanked those who celebrated Archie's birthday with the royal couple at a recent party for making his day "so incredibly special".

On the weekend, Meghan shared a black and white photo on her Instagram account showing her husband walking through a garden holding Archie's hand and daughter Lilibet on his shoulders.

It was posted after Prince Harry was criticised for fuelling speculation about the King's health.

The duke said he did not "know how much longer my father has left" in an interview with BBC News after losing a legal challenge over his security in the UK.

He added that he wanted "reconciliation" with the Royal Family, but claimed the King "won't speak to me".

Harry also said he couldn't "see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK".

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as working royals and moved to California 10 months after Archie's birth on 6 May 2019.
