Royal fans are OUTRAGED over this "horrific" portrait of Archie Mountbatten-Windsor

Overnight we finally got our first glimpse of Prince Harry and Meghan Marke's newborn son, Archie.

But before we got to see the youngster, royal fans were left outraged after a portrait of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex holding their newborn was released online.

The illustration appears to show the 34-year-old first-time dad with his eyes crossed and the former actress struggling to deal with the baby boy crying.

While the drawing – which was shared to Instagram on a Meghan and Harry fan account - was supposedly meant to be a funny tribute to the new parents, a lot of royal enthusiasts were not impressed.

"This is awful," one person wrote in the comments section.

"You wanna do a funny drawing? That's fine, but don't portray them... with their eyes and as if she doesn't know how to carry a child," another angrily added.

"I do not like this illustration of the Royal Sussex Family," another outraged fan wrote. "A brilliant and elegant couple that depicts a cross-eyed Prince, a loopy, distressed Princess and a hysterical crying Royal baby."

"Delete this" one commenter demanded, while another revealed they thought the "picture is trash".

The illustration was originally created by French studio Fairepart.

Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was born in the early hours of Monday morning May 6, weighing 7lbs 3oz.
