It's official: Prince and Harry and Meghan Markle have welcomed their first child into the world.

earlier this month, so we're not sure when we'll get the chance to feast our eyes on a photo of their bundle of joy, or find out what they've named him.1. HEIn 1917, King George V decreed that only the Prince of Wales's oldest son would be given the title His Royal Highness and be able to call himself a prince. That's why Prince William's first born son, Prince George, automatically qualified.

Britain's Prince Harry said his wife Meghan and newborn son were doing well and described the baby as"absolutely to die for". He was speaking to media after the birth of the seventh heir in line to the British throne. That said, in 2012, Queen Elizabeth issued her own decree granting the title of prince or princess to all of Prince William's children. She would have to do the same in order for Prince Harry's newborn to be a prince.

Even if the Queen doesn't, however, the royal baby will still have a posh title: he will be known as Lord Mountbatten-Windsor simply because his parents are a Duke and Duchess. Because the baby is a boy, he could also inherit his father's other title, Earl of Dumbarton.Prince William, Duke of Cambridge
