Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been showing off their new baby in front of the cameras at Windsor Castle.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have named their new baby Archie.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made the announcement on their Instagram account as they published a photo of their two-day-old new arrival being introduced to the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.

The couple had earlier showed off Archie — who weighed 7lbs 3oz (3.2kg) when he arrived into the world on Monday — in front of cameras at Windsor Castle.

"Um, it’s magic, it’s pretty amazing," said Meghan on Wednesday, asked how she was feeling. "I mean I have the two best guys in the world so I’m really happy."

The full name of the new royal baby will be Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

He is seventh in line to the British throne after his grandfather, Prince Charles; his uncle Prince William; his three cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis; and his father, Prince Harry.
