Archie and Lilibet Steal the Spotlight in New Photo — but for a Reason Charles Would Hate

A new photo of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet has been circulating online, showing the siblings with their backs to the camera as they admire Lilibet’s Ariel-themed 4th birthday cake.

The charming shot highlights their shared red hair — a feature linked to the Spencer family and one their grandfather, King Charles, is said to dislike.

A Special Disney Celebration

The image appeared in the documentary The Happiest Story on Earth: 70 Years of Disneyland — A Special Edition of 20/20, released on September 21.

The film featured Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sharing childhood memories from Disneyland while also documenting their own family’s trip to the park in June for Lilibet’s birthday.

For the occasion, the Sussexes ordered a two-tier cake topped with a figure of Princess Ariel, Lilibet’s favorite Disney character.

Charles’s Reported Disdain for Red Hair

While Charles may be pleased to see new images of his grandchildren, whom he has not seen in years, their ginger hair is likely not to his taste. The red-haired “Spencer gene,” passed down from Princess Diana’s side, was also present in Harry — something Charles allegedly complained about.

Former royal butler Paul Burrell recalled the monarch’s reaction in his book The Royal Insider: My Life with the Queen, the King, and Princess Diana. Speaking with The Mirror, he described Charles’s response when he first saw baby Harry: “Oh, red hair.”

Diana reportedly reminded him, “But, Charles, you know that’s the Spencer gene. We’ve all got red hair.” Burrell claimed the moment soured further when Charles allegedly remarked, “Well, at least I’ve got my heir and spare now and… I can return to Camilla.”

Harry on Reliving Childhood Memories

In the documentary, Harry reflected on experiencing Disneyland again through his children’s eyes. “I went with my mom and my brother… I remember losing it as a kid with all the characters. Like, losing it,” he recalled.

Speaking about Lilibet’s birthday celebration, he added, “To see the kids throw themselves into these experiences when they have no idea what they’re walking into — it was amazing. And it brings out the kid in you again.”
