MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry may be self-isolating in Canada, but it has been the perfect time to spend quality time with baby Archie.

A source told the : “Archie has now learned how to pull himself up while in the crib which Meghan said is cute, but can be a bit nerve-wracking.

“She [Meghan] also said Archie's new thing is blowing kisses, which is just absolutely adorable.”

The Duchess of Sussex, 38, is said to have added that her firstborn son is constantly babbling.

Royal fans were recently disappointed when Meghan and Prince Harry, 35, opted for a Mother’s Day post featuring different names for mums, instead of showing a new picture of little Archie.

Clarence House confirmed the future king had been displaying mild but remains in "good health" after being diagnosed with the deadly bug on Monday night.

Camilla, 72, tested negative for the virus, with the couple now self-isolating at their home in Balmoral, Scotland.

Buckingham Palace has since confirmed the Queen remains in "good health" after heading to Windsor last Thursday with Prince Philip - a week earlier than planned.

The source added that Meghan has been researching ways to help out during the crisis and told a friend that she is keen to foster a dog, although joked that “fostering meant keeping.”

The Duchess of Sussex has two rescue dogs, a beagle named Guy, who flew over to England with her when she married Prince Harry, and a Labrador-shepherd mix called Bogart, who was too old to make the journey across the pond. 

The couple have also added a black lab, who is thought to be called Oz, to their brood in late 2018. 

Last week, Harry and Meghan also encouraged people to text family or friends in self-isolation as it may save their life.
