London: Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, showed off their newborn baby boy to the public on Wednesday before introducing him to Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle. The beaming couple said parenting had been a "dream" and "amazing" but kept the world guessing as to the name of their son, who was born on Monday.

Harry cradled the apparently sleeping baby, wrapped in a white blanket and wearing a matching cap, in his arms. Meghan declared motherhood to be "magic." She said the baby had "the sweetest temperament" and has "just been a dream."

"It's pretty amazing. I have the two best guys in the world, so I'm really happy," said 37-year-old Meghan.The infant is seventh in line to the British throne and is the eighth great-grandchild of 93-year-old Elizabeth, Britain's longest reigning monarch.

Asked which parent the baby took after, Harry said it was too soon to tell: "His looks are changing every single day, so who knows?" Family members have welcomed the new arrival, with Prince William saying on Tuesday he was "absolutely thrilled."
