Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have welcomed a baby girl!
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are now proud parents of two after welcoming their daughter on Friday, June 4.
Exciting news of Archie's younger sister's arrival was announced by the couple, who revealed that they named their new arrival Lilibet "Lili" Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
The pair paid tribute to both Queen Elizabeth II and the late Princess Diana with the child's name, as Lilibet is the Queen’s family nickname.
Announcing the news, a statement from the press secretary for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said: "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.
"Both mother and child are healthy and well, and settling in at home."
Meghan and Harry welcomed their baby girl "in the trusted care of the doctors and staff at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, California" according to the statement.
As for the name, "Lili is named after her great-grandmother, Her Majesty The Queen, whose family nickname is Lilibet. Her middle name, Diana, was chosen to honor her beloved late grandmother, The Princess of Wales."
Meghan and Harry, who currently reside in a $14 million mansion in Montecito with two-year-old son Archie, confirmed in February that they were expecting their second child.
In March, the pair sat down with Oprah Winfrey for their bombshell tell-all interview, during which Harry said: "A girl, you know, what more can you ask for? But now, you know, now we've got our family. We've got, you know, the four of us and our two dogs, and it's great."
It was speculated that the pair would name their daughter after Harry's late mother, Princess Diana, after she tragically died in August 1997.
Harry is currently sixth in line to the British throne and his son Archie is seventh, making baby girl Sussex eighth.
Unlike Prince William and Kate Middleton’s three children, the Sussex kids do not have royal titles.
Congratulations to Harry and Meghan!
