Discussing their two young children, Meghan Markle said that “they’re amazing” in a new televised interview.
Highlighting the importance of understanding cyber abuse, Prince Harry and Meghan have appeared in a brand-new interview for CBS News.
Speaking about Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, the mother of two said: “Our kids are young,
they’re three and five, they’re amazing, but all you want to do as parents is protect them.”
Making a comment about online abuse, Meghan added: “And so as we can see what’s happening in the online space,
we know that there’s a lot of work to be done there and we’re just happy to be able to be a part of change for good.”
Host Jane Pauley then stated that, as parents, “when your children ask for help, someone is there to give it”, Harry replied: “At this point we’ve got to the stage where almost every parent needs to be a first responder.
“And even the best first responders in the world wouldn’t be able to tell the signs of possible suicide. That is the terrifying piece of this.”
With there having been very few public appearances from Archie and Lilibet, PEOPLE recently revealed why the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are “reluctant” to show their children publicly.
Speaking to the publication, a friend said: “Harry has been reluctant to show his children publicly, not out of a desire to hide them but to protect their privacy and safety from potential threats.
“He wants them to lead as normal a life as possible without the fear of kidnapping or harm. As a dad and husband, Harry is determined to ensure that history doesn’t repeat itself.”
Prince Archie, who turned five in May, was born in the UK and moved to the US at less than a year-old.
Unlike her elder brother, Lilibet was born in California on June 4, 2021.
Meghan and Harry now reside in the US with their children, with Archie and Lilibet having had very few visits to the UK.
In a recent interview, Meghan Markle opened up about the challenges of parenting two young children. She described her kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, as “amazing” and expressed the importance of protecting them from online abuse.
Prince Harry also emphasized the need for parents to be vigilant and proactive in ensuring their children’s safety, especially in the digital space where threats can lurk.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have chosen to keep their children out of the public eye not to hide them, but to shield them from potential dangers.
Harry’s own experiences growing up in the spotlight have made him determined to give his children a normal, safe upbringing.
As Archie and Lilibet grow up in the US, far from the royal spotlight, their parents are focused on giving them a sense of normalcy and privacy.
Despite their royal lineage, Meghan and Harry want their children to be able to lead ordinary lives without the constant threat of intrusion or harm.
This decision reflects their commitment to breaking the cycle of public scrutiny and protecting their family above all else. With their limited appearances and carefully controlled exposure to the public, Archie and Lilibet are being raised with a strong emphasis on safety and privacy. Meghan and Harry’s dedication to their children’s well-being is evident in every decision they make, from where they choose to live to how they interact with the media.
By prioritizing their family’s security, the Duke and Duchess are setting an example for parents everywhere to prioritize the safety and happiness of their children above all else. As they navigate the challenges of modern parenting, Meghan and Harry are leading the charge in creating a safer, more respectful world for all families.
