Baby Archie, Meghan, and Harry meet Archbishop Tutu and the photos are adorable
If you're looking for something to distract yourself from the political turmoil that's clutching the world at present, you're in luck. The royal family has an absolute overload of cuteness to bestow upon you. And it's nothing short of a gift.
Baby Archie — child of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, AKA the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — has had a rather eventful day meeting Archbishop Desmond Tutu in Cape Town, South Africa.
"Arch meets Archie!" declared an Instagram post on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's official account.

"This morning The Duke and Duchess were honoured to introduce their son Archie, to Archbishop, Desmond Tutu and his daughter, Thandeka," the post continued. "The Archbishop, a globally respected figure in anti-apartheid movement, is one of the world’s great champions of equality, and has spent his life tirelessly battling injustice."
The Apartheid — which comes from the Afrikaans word for 'apartness' — was a system of institutionalised racial segregation that existed in South Africa and South West Africa from 1948 until the early 1990s.
We don't often get treated with photos of Archie — just a peek here and there — but in this instance, there are loads of photos of this momentous occasion. So, here's a roundup of the cutest photos from the time Archie met Arch(bishop Tutu).
