She claimed: “As Archie has no cousins in California, he will invite his school friends – possibly the entire class. And the cool locals with kids and the Hollywood set.

“The party will be themed possibly Superhero which is popular with that age group.

“The food will be all gluten-free or possibly a choice, and there will be a themed birthday cake.”

Archie’s birthday cake could very well be made by Meghan.

For his fourth birthday last year, according to sources close to the family, she chose to bake her son a lemon cake using fruit from their garden, the Express reported.

She added: “Games will be arranged with an entertainer or a group of entertainers – everyone young in LA that isn’t an actor is a party entertainer!

“They might arrange for a themed adventure around the garden or something like a woodland theme with cowboys and Indians or a superhero theme.

“They might bring in exotic animals and make an upmarket petting zoo for the kids. Llamas. Miniature ponies etc – talking parrots or tame monkey.”

The expert suggested: “There will be a complete ban on all plastics and a request for no plastic presents. The glasses and plates will be bamboo or something similar.

“Kids of five love dancing so most likely will have a disco.
Harry and Meghan are beset by problems, everyone is bored of their relentless moaning about the way they’ve been treated
“There will be party bags for the kids and champagne (or wine) and beer for the parents possibly an after barbeque for the close friends.”

Ingrid went on to add: “These parties cost a fortune. Even parents with ordinary incomes spend a lot.

“It can cost £30 a head in the UK just for the entertainers!

King Charles with give him a toy from Hamleys and Queen Camilla will have chosen it.

“Not like the old days of Smarty Arty and pass the parcel which it was like when Harry was five.

“The girls will probably wear their party frocks and favourite outfits for the boys. It is more casual than here obviously, but kids like dressing up.

“They might be given what are called bee bombs which are like little hand grenades and when you throw them they hit the ground and flower seeds fly out.”

As for possible presents, Ingrid opined: “As I said no plastic…Fancy wooden toys, books.

Your Prince Harry and Meghan Markle questions answered

“Maybe a five-year-old size jeep or tractor but could not be plastic – have to be made of metal or wood. Very expensive as it would have to be custom made.

“I am sure some of the LA parents will try and outdo each other on presents.

“But not the royals. They are pretty parsimonious as far as presents go.

“It’s hard to find nonplastic presents for small children so it is anyone guess.

“The Harrods toy department hardly exists anymore so it will be something from Hamleys for King Charles to give him I would imagine. Queen Camilla will have chosen it.

“Also the godparents will be giving presents and sending from the UK.”

Ingrid believes King Charles will send his grandson a present from Hamleys, which Queen Camilla will have chosen.
