Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Name New Royal Baby Boy Archie
The name Archie is cer- tainly not a traditional choice for Harry and Meghan as it’s not the name of a past British monarch or even a past member of the British royal family. As of now, it’s unclear why Harry and Meghan chose the name Archie for their son.
Leading up to the name announcement, Ladbrokes odds had Alexander at 4/1, Spencer at 5/1, James at 6/1, Arthur at 7/1 and Theodore at 8/1.
Meghan gave birth to the baby boy, who weighs 7 pounds and 3 ounces, on Monday, the couple an- nounced on their Instagram page. Prince Harry, speak- ing to cameras on the grounds of Windsor Castle on Monday, said “this little thing is absolutely to die for.”

Common Details Being Molested As A Child In New Memoir
Common has released a new memoir titled Let Love Have The Last World. In it, the veteran rapper/actor de- tails a painful incident in which he was molested as a child.
According to Common, he managed to forget the memory of his molestation — perhaps as a coping mecha- nism — until he began work- ing on a film called The Tale in 2017. The movie told the story of the director’s child- hood abuse, which made Common recall his trauma while discussing the script with actress Laura Dern.
“One day, while talking

through the script with Laura, old memories sur- prisingly flashed in my mind,” he wrote. “I caught my breath and just kept loop-
ing the memories over and over, like rewinding an old VHS tape to take closer looks at the previous scene. I said to Laura, ‘I think I was abused.’ Right there, it all came back to my mind as if someone had suddenly in- serted deleted scenes into that little movie in my head, scenes that I hadn’t remem- bered or thought about be- fore, scenes I couldn’t even remember remembering.”
Common said he was molested during a family trip to Cleveland. His abuser, a relative of his godbrother Skeet, is referred to as “Brandon” in the book.
