Everyone’s saying the exact same thing about Prince William in Archie’s christening photo

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry christened their son, Archie Harrison, over the weekend in a private ceremony.

And while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex kept most of the details of the ceremony under wraps, they did release two photos from the special day.

The first of the photos was a black-and-white photo which showed Meghan cradling Archie, as Harry put his arm around the two of them.

The other was a group shot of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex alongside Archie, Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, Kate Middleton and Prince William.

Doria Ragland, Meghan’s mum, and Princess Diana’s sisters,  Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Lady Jane Fellowes were also in the photo.

However, royal fans soon began to point out William seemed to be a bit…’off’ in the photo. Namely, that seemed to be very unhappy to be there.

Alongside the beautiful photos, they said:

“This morning, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was christened in the Private Chapel at Windsor Castle at an intimate service officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby.

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are so happy to share the joy of this day with members of the public who have been incredibly supportive since the birth of their son. They thank you for your kindness in welcoming their first born and celebrating this special moment.

“Their Royal Highnesses feel fortunate to have enjoyed this day with family and the godparents of Archie.

“Their son, Archie, was baptised wearing the handmade replica of the royal christening gown which has been worn by royal infants for the last 11 years.

“The original Royal Christening Robe, made of fine Honiton lace lined with white satin, was commissioned by Queen Victoria in 1841 and first worn by her eldest daughter.

“It was subsequently worn for generations of Royal christenings, including The Queen, her children and her grandchildren until 2004, when The Queen commissioned this handmade replica, in order for the fragile historic outfit to be preserved, and for the tradition to continue.”
