The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have introduced their newborn son to the world and revealed he is to be called Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. The name was announced shortly after the Queen met her eighth great-grandchild for the first time at Windsor Castle, where earlier the couple showed him off to the cameras.

Baby Sussex was wrapped in a £105 ($136) shawl made by UK company GH Hurt & Son during his first appearance in front of the media, according to the Britain’s Press Association. The mother, however opted for a white trench dress by British designer Grace Wales Bonner, comfortably flaunting and embracing her postpartum baby bump.
The public took to twitter, appreciating the duchess for not “hiding the bump” and aiding a step further towards normalizing pregnancy and the man-made completely unnecessary – complexities around it.
You know what I love *most* about this photo, apart from the gorgeous pic, it's that Meghan is wearing a dress that shows off her post baby bump.
The bump doesnt disappear as soon as the baby pops out & I love that she's embracing it. https://t.co/erxBCpbsTp

LOVE that Meghan has come to her photo call without trying to hide the ‘after birth baby bump’. Absolute icon. This is how 99% of women look after birth and she is helping normalise it. She looks amazing and is absolutely glowing. Power to her and all new mothers! 💗 #babysussex
