There is also footage of Lilibet celebrating her first birthday at Frogmore Cottage in June as Archie climbs on the table to help his little sister blow out the candles on her cake.

In the final episode of the series, Prince Harry states that California feels like “home” for his kids, pointing out that Archie only spent the first five months of his life in the UK.

“Just seeing Archie running across the lawn and this big smile … this is the world he knows.

“This is home to him. This is home to Lilli.”
