Meghan Markle Reveals That Archie Loves the Song "Bennie and the Jets"

The first three episodes of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's new docuseries with Netflix, titled Harry & Meghan, have been filled with private tidbits about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's courtship and life together, including some adorable details about their first date, insight into Meghan's early days with the royal family (like why she wore so many neutrals) and a slew of never-before-seen photos of the couple in their early days.

While the series' chronology means they haven't yet gotten to the era of their children, Archie and Lili, interview clips and moments from the present mean viewers have gotten a glimpses of the littlest Sussexes. In the show's third episode, for example, Meghan reveals that Archie happens to be a big Elton John fan.

While getting her makeup done by her longtime makeup artists and friend Daniel Martin, Meghan asks Harry to DJ for the group. Harry quickly pulls up Elton John's 1974 hit "Bennie and the Jets," prompting Meghan to explain, "Archie loves 'Bennie and the Jets.' It is his favorite song and to watch a two year old go 'Bennie! Bennie! Bennie!" Meghan laughs, imitating John's famous intonation on the song.

Given that Archie is set to turn four next May, it's fair to assume that the clip was taken some time ago, but Elton John has a long history with the royal family, and was especially close for Harry's mother, Princess Diana—he even wrote a short recognition for Harry when he made Time's 100 most influential people list in 2019—and it seems Archie is carrying on a family tradition.
