Prince Harry made a rare comment about his two children during an appearance at the TIME100 Sports Gala in New York City on Thursday. The 41-year-old shares seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old Princess Lilibet with Meghan Markle, with his wife and children having recently joined him in the UK.
The royal was recently overheard speaking about his children, telling fellow guests that Archie and Lilibet are “growing like weeds”. The Sussexes, who are now said to be “happy” to be back in the US, made a trip to visit King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove House last Friday.
The King, who is known to be a doting grandfather to Prince William’s children, had previously not seen his two youngest grandchildren since 2022.
Following his meeting with the King on July 10, an insider also told Page Six that Harry was overheard telling guests at the Gala that his father is “doing great”.
This comment comes two years after the 77-year-old shared that he had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer.
During the family’s time in the UK, it is thought that they stayed with Harry’s uncle Earl Charles Spencer at Althorp.
Prior to Meghan, Archie and Lilibet joining Harry in the UK last week, a friend close to the couple revealed that the young royals weren’t aware of their relatives statues.

They told HELLO!: “The truth is they don’t really have any concept about who they [the Royal Family] are.”
The friend also shared that Harry and Meghan “are very good at keeping them away from it all so they live as normal little kids”.
According to the publication, Archie and Lilibet were “excited” to potentially see King Charles, although it seems that they view him simply as their grandfather and not as King.
