Harry and Meghan will not release Archie's birth certificate to ensure baby's privacy
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will not make their newborn son’s birth certificate public, in a break with Royal Family custom, as they draw a red line on privacy from his very first days.
The certificate, which will have to list the place of birth for Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, will be submitted as usual with a local registrar but not made available by the palace.
The decision, made in line with the Sussex’s strong views on privacy, is in contrast to the approach of the Cambridges, who permitted the birth certificates of each of their three children to be released for the benefit of the historic record.
The Susssexes, on the other hand, will seek to mask the details of where Archie was born for as long as possible, declining to confirm the medical team responsible.
Notably, a declaration of Archie’s birth on an easel on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace on Monday was signed personally by the Queen instead of doctors.
The Queen chose to personally sign the easel bulletin in "recognition of global interest in the birth", a royal source said last night.
The decision gives a telling insight into how the Sussex family will navigate Archie’s early years.
The baby, who is six days old today on Sunday, has been settling in to life as the seventh-in-line to the throne at Frogmore Cottage this week, with his grandmother Doria Ragland and family visitors including the sister of Diana, Princess of Wales.
Lady Jane Fellowes, Prince Harry’s aunt on his mother’s side, was among the first to meet Archie, keeping the memory of his late mother at the centre of family life.
The Duke and Duchess chose to specifically mention the Spencer family in their birth announcement, listing them along with Prince Harry’s paternal family in a message sharing their “delight”.
It followed the engagement interview of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, in which the former actress said that meeting his maternal aunts had been “so important” in keeping Diana as part of their lives.
The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were introduced to Archie on Wednesday, with a photograph of the occasion released, with other senior members of the Royal Family booked in for the coming days.
The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall, who have been on tour in Germany since Tuesday, have been inundated with well-wishes to convey home, and are said to be planning a visit to Windsor in the next few days.
The Cambridges, who have been in touch with the Sussexes to share their excitement about their new nephew, will also pop round to Frogmore Cottage bearing gifts and wise parenting words early this week.
Tomorrow, the Duchess will celebrate her first American mother’s day at home with a child of her own, with Ms Ragland by her side to make three generations of her family.
The close family set-up allowed the Duke to last night attend the Royal Windsor Horse pageant with his grandmother, accompanying her to one of her favourite events in the royal calendar.
The unexpected outing is understood to have been planned during the Duke and Duchess’ short visit to introduce Archie to his great-grandparents, with the Queen having been to the Windsor Horse Show that morning.
She has been regular guest at the show all week, photographed driving to and from it to watch horses, riders and carriage drivers including her grandddaughter Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor perform.
This week will see the Duke take a day off parenting duties for a day of work in Oxford.
It will not, however, see the release of Archie’s birth certificate as fans had hoped. Instead, the couple will take up to the legal 42 day limit to register the birth.
The document, like all other birth certificates in the UK, must eventually become a public document available on request.
Followers of the Royal Family, historians and biographers had been particularly interested in its publication, which would confirm the mystery details of where Archie was born after widespread reports that a home birth plan eventually ended up in a private central London hospital.
It is understood that the medical team did not wish their names to be made public.
Others were curious to know how the Duchess’ occupation was listed, with the Duchess of Cambridge assigned the role of “Princess of the United Kingdom” in documents relating to her children.
kalau limit setahun register kelahiran baby, ai yakin MM dan PH akan ambik masa sethn tu gak. Cobalah apa saja taktik... lambat laun, birth certificate tu akan keluar jua.
kekadang ai rasa sugars MM nih sama ada BBNU atau org dewasa terbantut perkembangan otak. Siapa naik jd raja England berdasarkan populariti dan pengundian parlimen dan negara2 komanwel katanya
Gitulah yg diperkatakan oleh bini pegawai pengiring MM dan PH dia Australia, menurut sis nour2001. dahlah pakai skirt pendek dan terbelah, dia kan suka duduk menyilang kaki... jd terkeluarlah aroma yg kurang enak

The Telegraph bukan tabloid ya tuan2 dan puan2
Harry and Meghan will not release Archie's birth c ...
dani.
I got this
Can I order someone else's birth certificate?
Under UK legislation, birth certificates are designated as 'public records', and as such anyone can request a duplicate certificate to be produced. The only caveat to this is that for births that occurred within the past 50 years, you must be able to provide the full details of that birth. When you order a replacement birth certificate you will need to provide:
The person's full name (including any middle names)
The person's complete date of birth (year and month is not acceptable)
The father's full name
The mother's full name
The mother's maiden surname
The place of birth (town/city as a minimum)
This legislation is in place to prevent instances of identity fraud. We are unable to help you where these details are not know.

yuhuu.. si Neol Rassumen ka nama anak sedara aka anak dia sendiri tu pun terpaksa la jugak masuk lis ...
"I brought Meghan Markle... Whatever her name is..."
"Isn't she, y'know... multi-ethnic, she's been married, she already has a kid from someone..."
dulu2 pernah gusip bertebaran psl anak pertama MM, tp ai tak percaya... mungkin sekadar menambahkan perisa. sekarang org yg kenal MM selamba jah lepas cakap sebegitu, it really makes you wonder.
