King Charles speaks with Meghan Markle before sending Archie a birthday gift
0King Charles will need to check in with Meghan Markle before sending a birthday present to his grandson, Prince Archie, on his fifth birthday.
According to royal analyst Tom Quinn, the king is concerned that whatever he sends to Archie will be "misinterpreted" by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
As a result, Charles will make sure to give something Meghan like, according to the expert, who also said that Harry has told his father not to send anything "too grand" to Archie or Lilibet.
"There has even been talk that he will send one of his own watercolour paintings to Archie as a present as Meghan loves homemade gifts and dislikes extravagant expensive presents," Quinn was quoted as saying by The Mirror.
"But King Charles and his entourage are genuinely terrified that anything the king sends to his grandson may be misunderstood by Harry and Meghan,” he continued.
“Charles famously gifted Prince George a lovely hand-made swing etched on the seat with George’s name, but Harry has warned him repeatedly that this type of present is too big for Archie."
The analyst also suggested that Charles may make a video call to the little Prince to wish him a happy birthday.
