Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan welcomed their first child – the very adorable Archie Harrison – back in May.
The Sussexes do Vogue
Right off the bat, there’s been much chatter about all things Archie, including when he’s going to get a brother or sister. Or brothers and sisters.
Thanks to Vogue we need to speculate no more. Harry himself appears on the pages of the esteemed fashion mag’s September issue and he’s spilling the royal beans.
This issue of Vogue was edited by his wife Meghan, and Harry was charged with interviewing a royal fave – Dr Jane Goodall aka the primate queen.
In the interview Harry chatted to Jane about his own affinity with the environment – and she urged him not to place it under too much further pressure.
“Because of the people that I’ve met and the places that I’ve been fortunate enough to go to, I’ve always had a connection and a love for nature,” Harry told Jane.
“I view it differently now, without question. But I’ve always wanted to try and ensure that, even before having a child and hoping to have children …”
Harry also broached the subject of racism, something close to his own heart considering his biracial family and the hate that’s been aimed at Meghan.
“What I love about your work is that you focus on the younger generation,” he told Jane. “[When] you start to peel away all the layers, all the taught behaviour, the learned behaviour, the experienced behaviour, you start to peel all that away and at the end of the day, we’re all humans.”
“If you get little kids together, there’s no difference!” Jane agreed. “They don’t notice, ‘My skin’s white, mine’s black,’ until somebody tells them.”
“Kids are taught to hate. They are actually taught to hate,” she continues, implying that it’s up to parents to do better. To be better. We could not agree more.
