Royal Rascals: Prince Archie And Princess Lilibet Steal The Show In Harry'S Meetings

Surprise Guests in the Royal Office

Prince Harry's professional life has taken an adorable twist. His meetings, often held from a shared office at his California home, are regularly interrupted by none other than his children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. During a candid chat on the "Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know" podcast on October 29, the Duke of Sussex, 41, spilled the beans on how his little ones love to "just barge in" during his calls.

“All they're interested in is saying hi to the people on the call. Or they're fascinated to see other people. They love seeing familiar faces. They will run in and kind of, occasionally, there's the moment with the hand on the forehead, saying, 'Not now,'” Harry joked about Archie and Lili.

Family Life in Montecito

Living in Montecito, California, Harry and Meghan Markle have created a cozy family atmosphere where work and home life blend seamlessly. Meghan, 44, has her own tales of Lilibet's antics, sharing that her daughter often crashes her video calls too. In an April episode of "Confessions of a Female Founder," Meghan revealed that Lilibet sometimes ends up on her lap during meetings, much to the delight of her colleagues.

"Lili still naps, she gets picked up early and she naps, she only has a half day in preschool," Meghan shared. "If she wakes up and she wants to find me, she knows where to find me, even if my door is closed to the office. She'll be sitting there on my lap during one of these meetings with a grid of all the executives… I wouldn't have it any other way."

Archie and Lilibet: The Unofficial Zoom Stars

The couple's children have become quite the unofficial stars on Zoom calls. Omid Scobie, author of "Finding Freedom," has previously mentioned how Archie loves to make surprise appearances on web calls. Back in 2020, Scobie noted on his podcast "The Heir Pod" that Archie was no stranger to climbing in front of the camera, much to Harry and Meghan's delight.
