At the beginning of June, it was announced that Meghan Markle had given birth to the couple's second child, a daughter named Lilibet "Lili" Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.

The baby was born on June 4 at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California at 11:40 a.m. and weighed 7 pounds, 11 ounces. 

"It is with great joy that Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, welcome their daughter, Lilibet 'Lili' Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, to the world," a spokesperson said in a statement to BuzzFeed News. "The duke and duchess thank you for your warm wishes and prayers as they enjoy this special time as a family."

The statement went on to explain the significance of the name, confirming that it was a nod to a family nickname given to Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth (Lilibet), and, of course, Harry's late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

Harry and Meghan themselves released a statement through their Archewell website, saying: "On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili."

"She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we've felt from across the globe," the couple added. "Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family."

In a statement to BuzzFeed News, Buckingham Palace said: "The Queen, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been informed and are delighted with the news of the birth of a daughter for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex."

Now, according to reports, Harry has briefly opened up about home life with two children, apparently revealing that it's a "juggle."

At a recent event celebrating the recipients of the 2021 WellChild Awards, singer Ed Sheeran reportedly asked the prince about raising Lilibet while also looking after her big brother, 2-year-old Archie Harrison, to which Harry replied: "Two is definitely a juggle."

"We've been lucky so far," Harry went on, according to Hello Magazine. "She's very chilled and seems happy to just sit there while Archie is running around like crazy."
