While he and Meghan have tried their best to keep both Archie and Lilibet away from the media limelight, the couple will have to inform their kids about their royal lineage in near future. However, they are apparently not in a rush to inform their children about their royalty.
According to experts, Archie and Lilibet will eventually learn about their royal bloodline as Meghan’s son and daughter are respectively sixth and seventh in line to the throne.
Speaking to US Weekly, an insider close to Meghan and Harry said, “They’ll have those conversations in due time.” Calling their kids “so well-mannered”, the source described Archie as “sweet and curious and playful,” and Lilibet as “vibrant and happy.”

Comparing the limelight being received by Harry’s and his estranged brother Prince William’s kids, the source mentioned his three children “have way more safety, even though they’re recognizable”. However, the same scenario does not apply to Archie and Lilibet.
“They know the world wants to see [them but] I would expect them to live smaller lives until that gets sorted, if it ever does,” the insider said.
According to a source, Harry and Meghan are “hands-on” parents who accompany their children to school, pick them up, and spend quality time with them throughout the day.
