Meghan Markle has shed a little light on family life in the Sussex household, with an adorable update about Prince Archie.

The mum of two today spoke at the TIME100 Summit, held at New York’s Lincoln Centre, where she touched upon a number of topics from her Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, to the social media obsession with her ‘flower sprinkles’. Meghan, 43, also spoke of the great content she’s found in having a “supportive” husband in Prince Harry, and “healthy kids who are so joyful”, declaring: “I’m the happiest that I’ve ever been.”

Addressing the star-studded audience, which featured the likes of Demi Moore and Ed Sheeran, the Duchess said: “To have a partner and husband who is so supportive, and to have healthy kids who are so joyful, and in the freeness of their life and the safety of their life we created for them… of all the things that happened I never would have imagined at this point I’d be so happy and free – and I really do.”

And the proud parent also revealed that five-year-old Archie is about to reach a very important milestone, which she hopes not to miss.

When discussing how she balances her business endeavours with mum duties, Meghan, who is also mum to three-year-old Lilibet, shared: “What we’re going to put out during our next launch is equally as important to me as Archie getting his first [big] tooth this week. It’s about to happen, I might get back just in time for it!”

In this same talk, Meghan explained why exactly she’d decided to film With Love, Meghan at a rented property, rather than her actual family home. Emphasising the importance of preserving as much normalcy as possible for her young children, Meghan said: “Eighty people in the kitchen isn’t really the childhood memory I’d like them to have.”

This summit marked Harry, 40, and Meghan’s first joint public engagement since the Invictus Games in February, with the pair seen smiling together as they arrived at the glittering event. Meghan wore a chic tan trouser suit, while Harry looked dapper in navy.

Body language expert Judi James told the Mirror US how Meghan put on a “display of power” as she posed for snaps with her husband.

Judi said: “Outside in the street on arrival Meghan’s body language signals are of affected humility and even a little shyness. Both arms are raised and bent at a 45 degree angle but the hands ‘wilt’ here, hanging limply from bent wrists in a display of a lack of strength or power.”

Judi then proceeded to note how Meghan’s sophisticated outfit added an extra layer to this confident demeanour, explaining: “Her head is lowered slightly too, and her brows raised, while her smile looks unassuming.

The stunning silk suit might be seen as a business option, but not on Meghan. The trousers trail onto the ground, creating a trip hazard and a means of collecting dirt in most office blocks.”
