Kate Middleton Says She 'Can't Wait To Meet' Niece Lilibet, Wishes Meghan Markle & Prince Harry 'The Very Best'
Duchess Kate has spoken out on the June 4 arrival of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's daughter, Lilibet.
While visiting the U.K.'s Connor Downs Academy alongside First Lady Jill Biden, Kate was asked about the family's new addition.
"I wish her the very best," she stated. "I can’t wait to meet her. We haven’t met her yet, I hope that will be soon."
Her words come after her and Prince William's Instagram account sent the couple well wishes.
"We are all delighted by the happy news of the arrival of baby Lili," their post read. "Congratulations to Harry, Meghan and Archie."
It was also reported that Kate and the family sent the newborn a gift.
During her outing with Biden, the mom-of-three was also asked if she's seen the baby via video chat, but she admitted that she had not.
On the other hand, Queen Elizabeth met her new great-granddaughter through Zoom shortly after the birth.
"Meghan is now resting at home and she and Harry have already introduced the Queen to her great granddaughter via Zoom," an insider exclusively spilled to The Royal Observer. "Since the couple moved to L.A., the Queen has become very familiar with Zoom. She talks to Harry, Meghan and Archie via technology, and now she is using it to meet her great-granddaughter. She is a very modern grandmother."

"This is the beginning of a new chapter within the family that will hopefully heal old wounds. Finally, there is hope that the family can reunite," the insider continued. "No one knew it at the time, but when Archie was born, Harry and Meghan were so angry with the family that they wanted nothing to do with them moving forward. That is why they broke all traditions and went with a totally new royal name. Now things have changed and they both very much want their daughter to be part of the family, which is why they chose the name Lilibet, the Queen’s childhood nickname."
