The controversy has reignited discussions about Archie’s birth on May 6, 2019, at Portland Hospital in London. Initial reports suggested Meghan was planning a home birth at Frogmore Cottage, but the change in location has only added to the speculation. Critics claim this secrecy has clouded the narrative surrounding Archie’s arrival.
Royal author Lady Colin Campbell has also weighed in, calling for clarity on the matter. “I think the whole thing stinks to high heaven,” Campbell stated. She added that Meghan’s actions have led people to believe surrogacy may have been involved. “Clear it up once and for all. There should be no mystery as to who is legitimately in the line of succession,” she urged, emphasizing the importance of putting rumors to rest.
A palace insider commented on the situation, saying, “This scandal comes as no surprise. Speculation about the children has been simmering for years.” The scrutiny stems from what critics describe as a lack of transparency surrounding the births. Both children are sixth and seventh in line to the British throne, but questions persist about their eligibility under royal succession rules.
