Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are thought to have spent very little time with their royal relatives, despite being two members of one of the world’s most famous families. The young royals, although raised in California, are now living in the UK.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle arrived in the UK with their children last week, with the exact location of their new home unknown. King Charles and Prince William are thought to have been informed of their decision to move back to the UK just days before it was made public, with the King said to welcome the prospect of spending more time with his son and grandchildren.

She said: “It is difficult to know how William would feel about Archie and Lilibet, now in the UK,” adding the five-word comment that “he does not know them”.

Ms Koenig added, “William and Catherine were present at Archie’s baptism, but within months, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were living in California, so it would have been impossible for William to establish a relationship with Harry’s children.

“After Lilibet’s birth, Catherine was asked about the baby, and she responded: “We haven’t met her yet. I hope that will be soon.”

It is also unknown when William’s three children, Prince George, 13, Princess Charlotte, 11, and eight-year-old Prince Louis, last saw their cousins.
