The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate put their alleged royal rift to the side with former royals Meghan Markle and Harry, to wish their nephew, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor a happy second birthday on social media.

Posting a throwback pic from Archie's christening in 2019, taken by photographer Chris Allerton, to Kate Middleton and Prince William's official Instagram account, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge wrote a simple message, accompanied with a red balloon and birthday cake emoji. The post said: "Wishing Archie a very happy 2nd birthday today."

Kate Middleton and Prince William celebrated their own children's recent birthday's on social media too! - but the royal couple often documents momentous occasions on their social media, just like their 10th wedding anniversary.

For Princess Charlotte's sixth birthday, which was May 2, 2021, the royal family posted a sweet pic of Princess Charlotte taken by her talented mom.

In honour of Prince Louis third birthday on April 23, 2021, the royal couple posted an adorable snap of a grinning Prince Louis on his first day of nursery. The photo, just like big sis', was taken by Kate Middleton.
