Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Son Archie’s Godparents Revealed
The mystery surrounding the godparents of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's son Archie has finally been solved.
According to a report from the Sunday Times, the couple named Prince Harry's childhood nanny, Tiggy Pettifor, and Harry's close friend and mentor, Mark Dyer, as Archie's godmother and godfather, respectively.
However, the couple themselves have not confirmed this information, adding to the shroud of mystery surrounding their children.
Deanna Eppers on Quora pointed out some of the mysteries surrounding Archie.
She questioned why Meghan limited the number of cameras and press when she introduced Archie to the world.
Eppers also noted that when Harry and Meghan presented Archie, they didn't let the cameras get a good look at him, and the baby didn't move or make sounds, which is unusual for newborns.

Additionally, Harry's thumb was reportedly white from digging into the baby's body to make it breathe.
Eppers also questioned why the Archbishop of Canterbury, who was supposed to have christened Archie, did not attend the ceremony, and why the photo released by the couple appeared to be photoshopped.
Meghan Markle has also come under fire for her comments about the HRH titles and security demands amid her move to the US.
Royal commentator Jonathan Sacerdoti said that Meghan didn't understand why she should release a photo of Archie to the royal rota when she could post it on Instagram.
Sacerdoti also noted that Meghan complained about the volume of press intrusion into her life, but also criticized the system in place to minimize that intrusion.
Furthermore, there is speculation about the future titles of Archie and his sister Lilibet.
The Queen of Denmark recently stripped half of her grandchildren of their titles, sparking a discussion about royal titles.
Royal historian Marlene Koenig said that there is a trend within European royal families to slim down the size of their royal families.
She added that most of Europe's monarchies are now gender-equal.
While the mysteries surrounding Archie and his family continue, the revelation of his godparents provides some insight into the couple's inner circle.
However, it remains to be seen whether Meghan and Harry will confirm this information or continue to keep their children's lives private.
