Does anyone know what Archie Harrison Mountbatten-windsor like

Or even who he looks like. I love seeing little babies grow into toddlers and seeing their resemblance to relatives emerge but so far all we know is what Archies hand looks like and the back of his head.

I'm not Meghan and Harry's biggest fan, but I have every sympathy for any young parents wanting to keep their child out of the limelight. They're not senior royals now, so have no obligations to the public.

In which case, why do they publish an an ambiguous photo? Perhaps they should follow the BoJo example and show nothing?

I posted three photos of Archie. Why is everyone still going on about one photo showing his back ?? OP. Said she wanted to see photos . I provided them.

Because they are answering the OP and don't read the thread?

That would be a novelty wouldn't it.

There have been a couple of photos published of Wilfred's back or the top of his head. Here's one.

This was on the Sky news site at Christmas. He was completing a reindeer picture as part of a charity scheme.

Young couple = Romeo and Juliet ?

Not exclusively for goodness sake.

Thank you Lucca.

They haven’t shown any recent photos. The one of him going to nursery school hasn’t been published in this country.

Are people giving Johnson as an example how to raise children shock

I can go one better. This morning dd sent me a photo of gs stood with his back to the camera with a giant hot air balloon which was making an emergency landing in the field opposite his house. Same stance as Archie but blonde hair and much bigger balloon! smile

People? What people?

Sorry, 25Avalon, cross-posted. My question was to Galaxy.

Galaxy Fri 07-May-21 20:39:33

Follow the Bojo example.

To my eyes Archie’s looks have not changed very much since the pics we last saw of him, except of course he has grown.
It’s probably a good idea to get him into a nursery for some of the time at age 2 when a new baby is to come soon.
That way he won’t feel pushed out by starting nursery at say 3, when his sibling has arrived.
(Do we know the sex of the expected baby? Or is that still unknown?)

Puzzler61 Fri 07-May-21 20:56:10

I’m referring to the picture where we can see his face, the one allegedly illegally published on youtube where he is apparently being taken to Nursery by his mum.

Meghan is expecting a girl

He's very talented!

As you would guess I’m just ? that anyone cares what any baby/child with which you have no personal link looks like and especially the 6/7/8th (?) child of a man who demonstrates no evidence of the concept of fatherhood in any meaningful sense of the word.

I am not clear what the problem is. OP asked if anyone knew what Archie looked like.
Clearly we do know.
Do posters a)want lots of photos of Archie or
B) not want photos of Archie. ??

The answer to,your question is obviously that posters want the opposite of whatever MM provides. This is an immutable law of all threads about MM as you well know . ?

Isn’t he just? grin

Blimey if they’d published umpteen photos of child they’d have been beaten up about exploiting their child for publicity. Why do all you bitching on about H and M want to see photos of child anyway? You don’t like them. So you don’t like one of back view. Move on. Don’t look. Show you don’t care.

I quite like the composition of the photo and the chosen colour, back view or not. I don't want to open myself up to ridicule or criticism by explaining why. Just to make it clear, I am talking about the photography here.
What I find sad, as a grandparent, is that Prince Charles could only dig out a photo of Archie as a little baby to wish him a happy 2nd birthday whereas the one of Charles and Louis at 2 years melts my heart and was again updated with the 3 year bicycle photo.
Estrangement and family conflict causes such grief in comparing these visual images.
My daughter takes those kind of photos of the children, it's fashionable, but of course I have hundreds of others with their smiling faces. If I were showing people my grandchildren I personally wouldn't choose the creative ones.
