Why George, Charlotte and Louis didn't join their parents to meet Archie
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have finally met baby Archie, one week following his birth.
Prince William and Kate visited their nephew at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, the new home of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
It is thought Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis did not join their parents for the visit due to the Cambridge children's busy schedules.

It would have been too late in the day for George, five, Charlotte, four and Louis, one, who would have struggled with the long trip there and back - one hour each way - and would have run late for their bedtime on a school night.
The Duchess of Cambridge travelled to Windsor from an engagement in Milton Keynes while Prince William arrived from London.
Ahead of the family meeting, Prince Harry spent a day in Oxford carrying out engagements including a visit to a children's hospital.
