 Because the pair hit it off, and they immediately arranged to see each other again, eventually going on to have 2 more dates in London.

And, in 2017, after a couple of months of privacy...

 The pair officially went public with their relationship.

The world quickly became Harry and Meghan obsessed.

 And people were delighted to hear the news of their engagement later that year.

 Archie Mountbatten-Windsor was welcomed into the world.

Harry, Meghan, and baby Archie make for the cutest little family.

But things haven't been as rosy and smooth-sailing as they have been appearing.

Meghan hasn't had the easiest time during her transition into the royal family...

 Joining the British royal family was never going to be easy, given that a person has to give up their entire life in order to be a part of the monarchy. But Meghan's experience has been especially difficult.

Many dedicated royalists weren't happy to see an American woman of colour in the monarchy...

 And many attacked the Duchess, slamming her as "fake," with some going as far as accusing her of breaking up the royal family entirely.

She has also been relentlessly attacked by the press...

To the point where Kensington Palace was forced to issue a statement, pleading for the press and the public alike to take a step back when it comes to their scathing reporting and bombardment of Meghan.

But, this year, the couple have seemingly had enough of the harassment and the criticism...

Because they announced that they would be officially stepping down as senior members of the royal family.

They made the announcement on their joint Instagram page, Sussex Royal.

“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen," the post read.

The couple plan on providing a more "normal" upbringing for Archie...

 And they announced that they will be splitting their time between the U.K and North America. “This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity," they wrote.

This was huge news.

And, obviously, it ruffled a couple of feathers in Buckingham Palace.

But what many people have failed to take into consideration...

 Is how hard this whole experience must have been for Meghan - a new mother.

Despite receiving hate from some social media users, the majority just want what's best for the couple.

That includes baby Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor - You couldn't make up a more royal-sounding name if you tried.

Yesterday, Archie celebrated his first birthday.

What a year it has been!

Harry and Meghan are currently isolating in LA.

Which means they're far away from many of their close family members.

But that didn't stop the tributes from pouring in...

The Queen herself was one of the first to offer her well wishes.

Wills and Kate soon followed suit.

These pictures are too adorable for words.

Then Charles and Camilla offered their "happy birthday"...

With another adorable throwback photo.

But, the birthday post that everyone was talking about was filmed by Harry himself.

Harry recorded a video of Meghan reading to Archie who, as most mischievous 1-year-olds do, was excitably squirming and giggling in her lap.

And the video wasn't just to celebrate Archie's birthday...

Meghan was also reading as part of the charity campaign, #SaveWithStories, a campaign that brings food and learning resources to children impacted by the pandemic.

The video was insanely cute.

 And Meghan looks confident and content in her role as a mother as she enthusiastically reads the story to Archie.

People have been gushing over the video...

Which is the most recent glimpse at the young royal.

But there's something else that people have noticed...

And it is about the make-shift cameraman, Prince Harry.

Harry can be heard laughing throughout the full video...

And often mimics what Meghan is reading out to make his son laugh, such as saying "Quack! Quack!"

And, at one point, Archie looks directly at his dad...

 And utters the word "dada". Our hearts can not cope with that.

Harry and Meghan are seemingly loving parenthood...

But does this mean we could be expecting a little brother or sister for Archie? Keep scrolling for more...
