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

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