The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have taken four-month old baby Archie to meet Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his daughter on day three of their royal tour of Africa, who joked the royal cutie is going to be a “ladies man”.
The couple shared a video of them walking into the event with Meghan carrying the smiling baby in her arms. The family had tea with Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Mrs Tutu and their daughter at their legacy foundation.
Meghan joked with the Archbishop’s daughter, Thandeka Tutu Gxashe, that Archie would have to get used to cameras in his life.
“I have cameras in my genes,” she said, adding that Archie was an “old soul.”
The Archbishop’s daughter also joked, “You like the ladies. He’s going to be a ladies man.”
Later today, the Duchess will donate gifts intended for the newborn to a local motherhood charity, mothers 2 mothers. The organisation helps mothers living with HIV and to fight paediatric AIDS.

“They were incredibly grateful but one little baby can only wear so many clothes and he’s growing fast! So the Duchess decided to being a number of his presents to re-gift them to South African children and families most in need. She’ll take a selection of clothes, books and pens to the mothers2mothers charity which help families with HIV.”
