Prince Archie is celebrating his 7th birthday.

The eldest child of Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, was born May 6, 2019, in London, near where the family lived at the time.

Harry and Meghan now live in California with Archie and their daughter Lilibet.

Archie's birthday falls just a few weeks after Harry and Meghan returned from a four-day visit to Australia, their first trip there since 2018, when Meghan's pregnancy with Archie was announced.

The 7-year-old's birthday also falls less than one week after his grandfather King Charles III visited the United States on a four-day state visit with Queen Camilla.
