Here’s to no terrible twos for Princess Lilibet!
The young royal, daughter of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan, turned 2 years old on Sunday. As of publication, no official announcement from the royal family has been made.
The Princess of Sussex resides in California with her father Harry, mother Meghan, and brother Prince Archie of Sussex, 4. Harry and Meghan moved to the U.S. in 2020 after stepping down from their roles as working royals in January of that year.
From the toddler’s signature red hair to her tradition-steeped name, Lilibet has already made an adorable splash in the royal family.Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan welcomed their daughter at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in June 2021, according to a news release at the time.
“It is with great joy that Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, welcome their daughter, Lilibet ‘Lili’ Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, to the world,” read a statement provided to USA TODAY by the couple’s representative.
The couple’s baby girl was named after Queen Elizabeth II, whose nickname among family was “Lilibet.” The newborn’s middle name, Diana, “was chosen to honor her beloved late grandmother, The Princess of Wales,” the release noted.
In March 2021, Harry gushed about having a daughter, a sister for son Archie, during a tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“Having a boy and then a girl: What more could you ask for?” Harry said.
