Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet spark huge debate after new photo released

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet have got royal fans talking.

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s matching red hair has been at the centre of discussions among royal fans this week, after a new picture of them was released. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex took their children to Disneyland earlier this summer and their visit coincided with Princess Lilibet’s fourth birthday on June 4.

Harry and Meghan’s visit was discussed in a new special programme about the park’s 70th anniversary, which aired on Sunday. In the feature, a new picture of the Sussex children was released showing them admiring Lilibet’s birthday cake, which was then shared on social media.

While the faces of Archie and Lilibet are not shown, royal fans could not help but notice the striking resemblance to their dad when it comes to their red hair, but struggled to agree on the shade.

One user said on X: “Lili’s hair is something else.”Another one added: “Archie’s hair looks dark red.”

A third one opined: “I think Lili is currently a strawberry blonde. The way they lean into each other, you can tell the kids are close.”

A fourth one wrote: “Archie is not ginger, Archie has that beautiful auburn/copper hair, gorgeous and Lilibet does look a strawberry blonde.”

A fifth one commented: “Red hair comes in many shades too!”

Meghan chimed in: “We were just so lucky.”

At the time of their visit, Meghan took to her Instagram account to post a video with clips and pictures of the whole family enjoying their trip, with the message: “Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!”
