2019 was quite a year—especially for the royal family.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their first child, Archie Harrison, seven months ago. After introducing him to the world, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex kept their son fairly out of the public eye. From keeping his christening private to enjoying the holidays with just "close family," the two shielded him from the spotlight. Still, royal admirers caught a few glimpses of the young royal, including during the Sussexes' tour of Africa.
Harry and Meghan weren't the only ones to experience a major milestone this year. Prince William and Kate Middleton did, as well. For instance, their daughter, Princess Charlotte, joined Prince George at Thomas's Battersea in London. Of course, there were plenty of adorable first-day photos. Prince Louis also celebrated his first birthday.
In addition, Princess Beatrice got engaged, and Queen Elizabeth published her first-ever Instagram post.
While there were plenty of highs this year, there were also a few lows. For instance, there were rumors of tension between Harry and William and Kate and Meghan. In addition, Harry and Meghan took legal action against a few British tabloids.

We wonder what this next year will bring.
