Lili, who weighed 7 lbs, 11 oz at birth, is the first senior royal baby born in the United States, and the first great-grandchild of the queen to be born outside of the United Kingdom.

“On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili,\" Harry and Meghan said in a statement on the website of their Archewell organization. \"She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe. Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family.”
