“Often there are different needs at different stages of the baby’s life…”

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly gone through three nannies since their son, Archie Harrison, was born six weeks ago.

A royal insider told The Sun that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were keen to get the “deeply personal” decision on who to hire right.

Explaining that it was a personal matter, they added:

“Often there are different needs at different stages of the baby’s life. The first nanny was a night nurse.

“But Harry and Meghan do not want to rush this or take any risks getting this decision right.

“It’s deeply personal and can depend on the needs of the baby and parents.”

It comes as it was revealed that Meghan and Harry would be heading on another royal tour later this year – and will bring Archie with them.
