“Such happy news really does remind one of the necessity of continued innovation in this area — especially around sustainable battery technology — in view of the legacy we bequeath to our grandchildren.” Prince Charles’ speech comes just two days after His Royal Highness’ official Instagram account released a statement, congratulating his second son, Prince Harry, 36, and daughter-in-law, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, 39, on the newest addition to their family.
“Congratulations to Harry, Meghan and Archie on the arrival of baby Lilibet Diana,” a caption to a precious photo of Meghan, Harry and the couple’s two-year-old son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, read. “Wishing them all well at this time.” Meghan and Harry welcomed their precious baby girl on June 4, and took to their official foundation website, Archewell, to share the news.
