The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have given the world the first glimpse at their newborn son.
The couple proudly showed off their two-day-old beautiful baby boy to cameras inside St George’s Hall at Windsor Castle on Wednesday as the royal tot attended his first photocall.
The tiny newborn was wrapped up in a white blanket and matching hat as proud dad Harry, who wore a grey suit, cradled the tot in his arms.

Speaking about parenthood, new mum Meghan – who looked radiant in a white blazer dress – said: “It’s magical, pretty amazing. I mean I have the best two guys in the world. I’m really happy.”
Speaking about her baby son, Meghan added: “He has the sweetest temperament and he’s really calm and been the dream. It’s been a special few days.”
Harry continued: “It’s great. Parenting is amazing. It’s only been two days, three days, but we’re just so thrilled to have our very own bundle of joy.”
He then joked: “He’s already got a bit of facial hair!”
When asked who they think the baby looks more like, Harry said: “Everyone says that babies change so much over two weeks we’re basically monitoring how the changing process happens over this next month really.
“But his looks are changing every single day, so who knows.”
The couple said they are showing their tot to their family later and thanked people for their well-wishes.
The royal couple became parents for the first time this week as they welcomed a baby boy into the world.
Baby Sussex was born at 5.26am on Monday and the couple have since enjoyed some peace and quiet at Frogmore Cottage, nestled within the grounds of the royals’ Windsor estate.
An announcement on their Instagram account read: “We are pleased to announce that Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their firstborn child in the early morning on May 6th, 2019. Their Royal Highnesses’ son weighs 7lbs. 3oz.
“The Duchess and baby are both healthy and well, and the couple thank members of the public for their shared excitement and support during this very special time in their lives.
“More details will be shared in the forthcoming days.”
A thrilled Harry later spoke to reporters and said he was “incredibly proud” of his wife.
He said: “I’m very excited to announce that Meghan and myself had a baby boy earlier this morning, a very healthy boy.
“Mother and baby are doing incredibly well. It’s been the most amazing experience I could ever have possibly imagined.”
The royal baby was believed to have been born at Frogmore Cottage, but according to the Daily Mail, Harry and their security team whisked Meghan off to hospital on Sunday night to have the baby there.
The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Lady Jane Fellowes, Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Earl Spencer were “delighted with the news”.
