Baby Archie continues to bring the Royal family together!
Remember when we told you that at nearly 10 days old, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry‘s newborn had begun to heal deep wounds between members of his silently feuding family?
Well, thanks to little Arch, all that beef may permanently be a thing of the past now, according to the latest from sources close to the fam.

Speaking to ET, royal expert Katie Nicholl first addressed the rumored rift between Harry and his brother Prince William.
She confirmed it all, saying:
“It’s absolutely the case that the brothers did fall out. I was told by a very senior royal source that actually they weren’t talking to each other at one point.”
As we told you, there had been multiple reports coming out of Kensington Palace last December alleging the siblings were not exactly on the best terms. The rift supposedly originally started after Kate Middleton‘s husband voiced his “concerns” about Meghan, when she first started dating his brother.
There was an obvious distance between them for quite a while after the fact. But this is where the latest addition to the fam comes into play!
Nicholl continued, adding:
“I certainly think now that Archie is here, it has probably really helped to improve the relationship. William is over-the-moon that his brother is a dad.”
Awww. We’re so glad to hear that the brothers are bonding again!
Considering the fact that Father’s Day is coming up this weekend on June 16, the timing of this reconciliation is perfect.
Speaking of the holiday, Nicholl also told the outlet that new father will most likely keep it “low key.” We can assume it’s most likely because the Duchess of Sussex is still soaking up some rest on maternity leave. She insisted the day will still be special though!
“This is going to be a really important day for Prince Harry. He waited for a very long time to become a father. There were moments when he feared he would never become a dad. So to mark Father’s Day with baby Archie is going to be really special, and if we’re lucky, who knows, we may even get a glimpse of the new prince on Instagram.”
Ahhh! Did you catch that last part? A new glimpse of the newborn would be SUCH a treat.
Archie’s good vibes have spread to his momma and her sister-in-law’s relationship, too! Nicholl says the Duchesses have been leaning on each other now, more than ever:
“I hear that Kate has made herself available to Meghan if she needs advice, if she needs any help, and Kate said to her, I’m here. I’m here for you.”
We’re happy to hear the entire family is coming together now, regardless of past drama! Thanks again, Archie!
