Meghan Markle is setting the record in relation to the changes made to Archie’s son’s birth certificate.
In a statement Sunday to Page Six, a spokesman for the Duchess of Sussex, 39, said the omission of her first name, “Rachel Meghan,” in Archie’s birth papers was a call made by The Palace.
“The name change to public documents in 2019 was dictated by The Palace, as confirmed by documents from senior Palace officials. This was not requested by Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex or the Duke of Sussex,” he said. the statement.
Over the weekend, an updated piece of Archie’s birth certificate appeared online, with The Sun from the UK highlighting the changes made to Markle’s name. She now appears as “Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex”, while Harry, 36, is regarded as “Her Royal Highness Prince Henry Charles Albert David Duke of Sussex”.
The changes were made in June 2019, a month after the birth of Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
A Markle spokesman also criticized speculation that the modifications were an excavation on sister-in-law Kate Middleton, who shares three young children with Harry’s older brother, Prince William.
The Sussex, who have been married since 2018, left office last January as “senior” royal. They currently reside in California.
