Who will baby Archie's playmates be as Meghan Markle and Prince Harry split their time between the UK and North America?

By

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced they're stepping back as senior members of the royal family last week and revealed they plan to split their time between the UK and North America. Following discussions about Prince Harry and Meghan's future roles, the Queen released a statement in support of their decision, adding "there will be a period of transition in which the Sussexes will spend time in Canada and the UK."

Harry and Meghan spent their six-week festive break in British Columbia with their eight-month-old son Archie. The Duchess has since returned to Canada to be with Archie, while the Duke has remained in the UK to host the Rugby League World Cup 2021 draws on Thursday. Harry is expected to fly to Canada to be reunited with his wife and son following his engagement.
Discussions about the Sussexes' future roles are still being finalised and it is not known whether there will be a permanent move to Canada, but here at HELLO! we thought we'd take a look at who Archie's playmates could be, while the Sussexes are in North America.

Oona and Iris Seppala

Meghan lived in Toronto while filming US legal drama Suits and became close to her co-stars, including Sarah Rafferty, who played Harvey Specter's secretary Donna Paulsen. Sarah has two daughters Oona and Iris, who will no doubt look out for Archie.

The fashion designer who collaborated with Meghan on her Smart Works capsule clothing collection last year is pregnant with her first child.

Tom Selleck is tortured daily because of his long-term disease, his friends say

By
If rumors are to be believed, fans of the 'man behind the mustache' might have considerable cause for alarm over the actor's health. Several articles have recently made the rounds, all with the same premise: Hollywood heartthrob, Tom Selleck is facing rapidly declining health as he suffers from a debilitating bout of arthritis. One such source to lay claim to Selleck's failing health is Ghanamma.com, whose information is supported by The Nation, an online newspaper. Both sources state that Selleck's arthritis is becoming increasingly painful and hindering, to the point where he can no longer do his own stunts. More than that, however, the publications reported that Selleck uses a stunt double not only for demanding, challenging scenes, but also for the more trivial, mundane tasks, such as simply climbing out of his police vehicle on set while filming Blue Bloods. Some days are worse than others for the former action star, unnamed sources said, claiming tha...

The cryptocurrency was trading at about 54 cents, according to data from Coin Metrics. Dogecoin rose to roughly 40 cents per coin last month before falling sharply for several days after the calendar turned to April 20, a date widely celebrated as a marijuana-themed holiday. Dogecoin was started as a joke in 2013 amid a boom in early cryptocurrencies. It was based on a popular internet meme at the time that featured a Shiba Inu dog and cartoon-style text over the image. Its rise in recent months has been highlighted by many as a sign of froth and speculation in the financial markets, particularly among younger investors who started trading during the pandemic.
