Meghan Markle's son Archie met a lot people in his first two weeks of life, including the Queen, Prince Charles, Kate Middleton, and Prince William. But Archie only finally met his cousins—the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—on July 10 at the charity polo match that Harry and William played in. Meghan and Kate both attended to support their husbands and brought their children with them.

Emily Andrews, The Sun's royal correspondent, was on Yahoo!'s The Royal Box show where she revealed the news. “It was interesting actually, that polo match, because it was the first time that Charlotte and George had actually met Archie," she started. "They hadn’t actually met him for two months, so that polo match was lovely." Andrews did confirm that their parents Kate and William had met Archie before. "[But] that was the moment at the polo match where all three of the Cambridge kids got to meet Archie.”

The world got to see a glimpse of that meeting, courtesy of the event's photographers. Photos came out of George hanging alongside Meghan and a sleeping Archie, along with Prince Louis joking around in his mother Kate's sunglasses in front of Meghan and Archie.

George, Charlotte, and Louis were not at Archie's christening on July 6, Archie's last big event before the polo game. Their parents Kate and William attended the small gathering without them.

When the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met Archie on May 14. The Daily Mail's royal reporter Rebecca English confirmed the news on her Twitter and that there would be some time before George, Charlotte, and Louis hung with him. "Just to confirm that William & Kate visited their new nephew, #ArchieHarrison, at Frogmore Cottage today after #PrinceHarry returned from Oxford," she wrote. "Their children weren’t with them, however, so it will be a little while yet before George, Charlotte and Louis meet their new cousin."
