TRHs The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge — now known as TRHs The Prince and Princess of Wales — visited the town of Slave Lake in northern Alberta, Canada, during their royal tour of the country. Just two months earlier, the community had been devastated by wildfires that destroyed nearly one-third of the town, including hundreds of homes and businesses.

With compassion and genuine warmth, the royal couple met with residents, local business owners, and first responders who had bravely fought the fires and supported recovery efforts. They toured the heavily affected areas, listened to personal stories of loss and resilience, and offered encouragement and solidarity on behalf of the Crown. 🌲🔥👑

Their visit was seen as a powerful gesture of support, bringing hope to many during a time of immense recovery. The people of Slave Lake later recalled the Royal couple’s visit as deeply touching — an uplifting moment amid the hardship. 🇨🇦🤍

On a Day Like Today ~ July 6, 2019 👶👑💦

Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, now known as HRH Prince Archie of Sussex, was christened in a private ceremony at Windsor Castle. The intimate service took place in the Private Chapel and was conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Only close family and friends were in attendance, and the occasion was marked by an official family photograph released by the Royal Household. 📸✨

Archie was born on May 6, 2019, at the Portland Hospital in London. He is the first child and eldest son of HRH Prince Henry (Harry), The Duke of Sussex, and HRH Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, née Meghan Markle. He is a grandson of HM King Charles III and is currently 6th in the line of succession to the British throne.

Though entitled at birth to use the courtesy title Earl of Dumbarton, his parents chose not to use a title for him at the time. Under the 1917 Letters Patent issued by HM King George V, Archie was not born a prince because he was a great-grandchild of the monarch through the male line. However, when his grandfather King Charles III ascended the throne in September 2022, Archie became eligible for a princely title.

Beginning in early 2023, his parents began publicly referring to him by his formal style:
HRH Prince Archie of Sussex — using his father’s dukedom as his territorial designation. 🇬🇧✨

Today, Prince Archie lives in Montecito, California, with his parents and younger sister, Princess Lilibet Diana. He is also heir apparent to his father’s Dukedom of Sussex, Earldom of Dumbarton, and Barony of Kilkeel.
