With proud dad Prince Harry shooting the footage from behind the camera, the doting parents can be heard cooing over their little boy as he babbles away, clearly enjoying his birthday.

At the end of the story, the couple make sure to give the tot lots of cheers, with Harry yelling, "Bravo!"

Beside the upload, a caption says, 'Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex reads "Duck! Rabbit!" for Archie's birthday

'"Duck! Rabbit!" with Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex (and Harry, The Duke of Sussex behind the camera), read to their son Archie for his 1st birthday. Happy Birthday, Archie!'

The birthday video was shared as a good deed by the Sussexes as part of Save The Children's Save With Stories campaign, in order to help raise money for families with young children across the UK, struggling financially as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

'Thank you #DuchessMeghan for helping us to raise urgent funds for our coronavirus appeal by reading "Duck! Rabbit",' the caption continues.

Of course, loads of royal fans were left swooning over the lovely upload.

'MY HEART! Thank you for sharing ❤️😭,' one wrote.

'❤️ Happy first birthday Archie! What a beautiful baby! 🐰,' commented another.

'My goodness! I love them! Happy Birthday Archie 🎊🎉,' added a third.
