Prince Harry in an interview
"We all know what the British press can be like …"
Prince Harry answers questions from comedian James Corden about his wife Meghan, their son Archie and his thoughts on leaving the royal family. See in the video how even a spontaneous "F * ck" escapes him in front of the camera!
Unusually frank words from Prince Harry, 36: During a sightseeing tour through Los Angeles with his friend James Corden, 42, he gives insights into the beginnings of his relationship with Duchess Meghan, 39, everyday family life with baby Archie and contact with the royal family .
This is how the love of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan began
When he knew that Meghan was "the one", James Corden got into the personal part of his drive with the prince. "On the second date, I thought, 'Oh, this is special,'" Harry replies. The comedian wants to know what they did. It wasn't about what they did with each other, Harry explains. "It was just how we treated each other. We felt so comfortable around each other. Dating me – dating every member of the royal family – is like being turned upside down."

What other couples do – go to the cinema, to the restaurant – was not possible for the two of them. Harry recalls that they spent a lot of time just as a couple, watching TV, eating, or meeting friends. As a result, there was no distraction. "We went from zero to 60 in the first two months".
Baby Archie is developing wonderfully
After the wedding in May 2018, the birth of baby Archie Mountbatten-Windsor marked the next milestone in Harry and Meghan's relationship. Harry says of the little one: "My son is now over a year and a half. He's excited, he has the most amazing personality. He's already putting two or three words together, he's already singing songs. His first word was 'crocodile', three syllables . "
On an ordinary day, he bathes Archie and reads to him, reports Harry. When the little one sleeps, he watches TV or Netflix. This is where James Corden hooks: What does Harry think of "The Crown". It is important to note that the series does not show the truth or fiction, Harry points out.
Queen Elizabeth is in contact with Baby Archie and gave him an unusual gift
It had repeatedly been reported that Harry and Meghan kept in touch with the Queen via Zoom. Harry confirms this in an interview with Cordon: "My grandparents [know how to use zoom]. We zoomed in a few times, they saw Archie walking around. But instead of pressing 'leave meeting', my grandfather just leaves."
Later, Harry even reveals what Queen Elizabeth, 94, gave her great-grandson for Christmas. "Interestingly, my grandmother asked me what Archie wanted for Christmas and Meg said a waffle iron. She sent us a waffle iron for Archie. Archie literally wakes up in the morning and says 'waffle'."
This is what Prince Harry says to the Megxit: "I did what every husband and father would do"
There has been a lot of fuss about Harry and Meghan since January 2020. Their decision to leave England and royal duties behind has preoccupied the British like no other royal family issue.
Harry clarifies: "It was more of a step back than a [complete] resignation. It was a very difficult environment as many people saw. We all know what the British press can be like and it was damaging to my sanity."
So he did "what every husband and father would do" – and pulled the emergency brake to protect his wife and son. "We never left and as far as I'm concerned I will never go, whatever decisions are made about it. I will always contribute, […] my life is a public service. Wherever I am in the world it will be the same. "
