When the Duchess showed baby Archie off to the world at St George’s Hall in Windsor, she gave some words to the press. “It’s magic, it’s pretty amazing,” the first-time mum said, alongside her husband Harry, “I have the two best guys in the world so I’m really happy,” she added.

Later, when she and Harry went on an official tour, Meghan got a little more candid about motherhood. Although she said it was “all so exciting,” she did admit that being a working mother was “a lot”.
When speaking to Lara Rosmarin, chief executive of Cape Innovation and Technology and a mother herself, Meghan said: “It must be a lot to juggle. We’re only five months in right now. Being a working mum and travelling as well with a baby, my goodness it’s a lot, but it’s all so exciting.
