Claim 1: “Prince Archie, the eldest child and only son of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, is celebrating his 7th birthday”
DISPUTED
There is a contradiction regarding the age. Wikipedia states Prince Archie was born May 6, 2019 (making him 5 or 6 depending on the current date). One web source says he turned 6 on May 6, while another says he turns 7. Given the birth date of 2019, he cannot be 7 in 2024 or 2025.
