Later on Sunday, Princess Eugenie - one of Harry's cousins - shared a black-and-white photo of the couple on her Instagram story.

"Congratulations dear cousins," she wrote across the photo, along with six red heart emojis. "We couldn't be happier for you all."

Lilibet Diana was born on June 4 and is named after both the Queen, whose family nickname is Lilibet, and the late Princess Diana, Harry's mother.

In a note posted to the website for their foundation, Archewell, on Sunday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said of their daughter: "She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we've felt from across the globe. Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family."
