Uncle Prince William and Aunt Kate just met baby Archie, the seventh in line to the throne.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met their newest nephew, a bit more than a week after he was born on May 6.

A palace representative confirmed to People.com that the private gathering just took place, with Kate and William paying a visit to new mom and dad Meghan Markle and Prince Harry at their home.

Earlier that day, both Harry and Kate had royal engagements: Harry visited children in Oxford while Kate visited a WWII spy base in Bletchley Park.

Before meeting his uncle and aunt, Archie met his great-grandparents Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth. The meeting also included the Duchess of Sussex Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland.

The heartwarming photo, in which the Queen smiles at little Archie, celebrates the joining of countries, racial heritage, and cultures.

Tessy Ojo, chief executive of the Diana Award, previously told People: “Like Harry and Meghan’s wedding, [baby Archie] changes the landscape in terms of bringing visibility around race and inclusion.”

Prince Charles is also expected to meet his newest grandson for the first time. During his three-day tour in Germany the day after Archie was born, the proud grandfather said: “We couldn’t be more delighted at the news, and we’re looking forward to meeting the baby when we return.”

Since Archie’s birth, the new parents have been savoring their baby’s first days.

A palace rep told People: “Harry and Meghan spent the weekend enjoying their first weekend as parents, celebrating Mother’s Day, and had visits from a few friends.”
