New Baby Beauty! The Queen, Prince Charles, More React To Meghan Markle & Prince Harry's New Bundle Of Joy!
Oh, baby!
The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, and Prince Harry are proud parents once again! The Royal bundle of joy dubbed Lilibet 'Lili' Diana Mountbatten-Windsor made her grand debut on Friday, June 4 at 11:40 a.m. weighing 7lbs 11 oz. and her family couldn't be happier!
Queen Elizabeth released a statement voicing 'delight' on the birth of Meghan and Harry's healthy, baby girl on behalf of herself and others in the Royal family including Prince Charles, Duchess Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton.
According to a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace, the statement read, "The Queen, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall, and The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been informed and are delighted with the news of the birth of a daughter for The Duke and Duchess of Sussex."
The Royal family were not the only ones to offer best wishes to the Royal parents.
TV personality Ellen DeGeneres took to social media to playfully offer up her own congratulations with a cute and 'punny' tweet. "Congratulations Meghan, Harry and Archie. Welcome to the world Lilibet! I am more than a Lilibet excited to meet you."

This joyful news comes after the Royal couple got candid about a previous devastating loss, when Meghan Markle announced that she had experienced a miscarriage in July.
As OK! previously reported, Harry and Meghan's decision to share the extremely personal matter with the public strays away from royal norms, which emphasize keeping political and personal matters hidden behind closed doors.
"They kept their miscarriage private for months because it was very painful and not anything that they knew if they would ever want to share," a source told PEOPLE. "They both seemed shocked at how painful it was. Meghan was ready to share now because so many women go through the same thing in silence."
The Royal couple voiced their excitement and gratefulness for their new daughter 'Lili' in a statement on the Archewell website. "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."
