In the strangest twist yet to hit royal gossip, a social media user on X (formerly Twitter) has sent shockwaves through the internet with a jaw-dropping claim: “Archie is Darren. Darren Doll. I colored him myself.”

Yes — you read that correctly.

This anonymous poster insists that Prince Archie isn’t a real child, but rather a doll from a children’s coloring book — specifically a figure she claims to have personally decorated with markers. The post included side-by-side “evidence,” comparing a photo of Archie with a doll she allegedly named “Darren.”

👀 Netizens reacted with a mix of confusion, laughter, and full-blown conspiracy fever. Some mocked the claim as “the worst royal deepfake theory ever,” while others demanded Buckingham Palace issue a response (they didn’t).

🎭 Critics of Meghan and Harry quickly latched onto the theory, pushing hashtags like #ArchieTruth and #DarrenGate, while defenders rolled their eyes at what they called “peak internet madness.”

Is this satire? A joke gone viral? Or the latest chapter in the never-ending royal circus?
