They needed someone to look after their son when they were on royal engagements together. While they were only working royals for less than a year after Archie\u2019s birth, the couple did manage to find a nanny for their son.<\/a><\/p>\n

While Lorren has not shared much about her experience working with the couple and helping look after Archie, who is now six, she did once reveal what her first meeting<\/a> with Harry and Meghan was like.<\/p>\n

Although she expected it to be formal, especially considering she was going for a role of being a royal nanny, Lorren was surprised at what she found when she turned up at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor for the first time.<\/p>\n

She explained that the environment was far more casual than she expected, with Harry reportedly walking around barefoot in jeans and a T-shirt rather than the suit she had expected.<\/p>\n

Talking about the first meeting with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Lorren said on The Breakfast Club with Zenzele Ndebele: “When I got there, the way he opened his arms ‘Hello Lorren!’ and gave me a hug.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued: “[I thought] ‘Wow, what a gentleman, what a gem’, oh my goodness, I couldn’t believe it.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd when I walked in and saw Meghan, I thought ‘My God, what a beautiful woman’. I just felt so comfortable, it wasn’t as formal as I expected it to be, it was just a normal home.”<\/p>\n

Lorren enjoyed her time working with Harry and Meghan until they moved to the US in 2020, and the royal couple seemed equally as fond of her.<\/p>\n

Talking on their self-titled Netflix<\/a> docuseries in 2020, Meghan said: \u201cShe didn’t just take care of Archie, she took care of us, she definitely took care of me.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"They needed someone to look after their son when they were on royal engagements together.
