Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Welcome Baby Girl

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle , on Sunday announced the birth of their second child, a baby girl.

They have named her after Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana.

Lilibet ‘Lili’ Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born on Friday at the Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California, with Harry in attendance.

“On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili. She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe,” Harry and Meghan said in a statement.

“Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family. Both mother and baby were doing well and were back at home,” their press secretary said.

The couple said they named their second child Lilibet after the Royal Family’s nickname for the Queen, the baby’s great-grandmother.

Her middle name, Diana, was chosen to honour her “beloved late grandmother”, The Princess of Wales, stated a report in the BBC.

The couple had stepped down from royal duties and moved to the United States to live more independent lives, but rarely been seen out of the public spotlight.

The couple also has a son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, who was born in May 2019.
