The Duke of Sussex may have only recently become a father for the first time, following the arrival of baby Archie, but while he is enjoying every second of parenthood, he has already made up his mind about how many children he wants.

In an interview with conservationist Dr Jane Goodall, which is set to be published in Meghan Markle's much-anticipated guest-edited September issue of British Vogue, Prince Harry revealed he only wants two children.

During the interview, the royal and world-famous primatologist discussed the environment, climate change and preserving the plant for the generations to come.

Which, ultimately lead the conversation to fatherhood with the 34-year-old royal admitting becoming a father to his three-month-old son has made him "see the world differently" and he now only wants a "maximum" of two kids in order to help protect the environment.

He said: "I think, weirdly, because of the people that I’ve met and the places that I’ve been fortunate enough to go to, I’ve always had a connection and a love for nature."

"It is terrifying. Especially as you've just had a baby," Goodall told Harry.

"I view it differently now, without question," Harry said. "But I've always wanted to try and ensure that, even before having a child and hoping to have children …"

"Not too many!" Goodall cut in with a laugh.

"Two, maximum!" Harry continued.

Earlier this summer HRH The Duke of Sussex met with world renowned ethologist Dr. Jane Goodall for an intimate conversation on environment, activism, and the world as they see it. This special sit-down was requested by The Duchess of Sussex, who has long admired Dr. Goodall and wanted to feature her in the September issue of @BritishVogue, which HRH has guest edited. HRH and Dr. Goodall spoke candidly about many topics including the effects of unconscious bias, and the need for people to acknowledge that your upbringing and environment can cause you to be prejudiced without realising it. The Duke described that “[when] you start to peel away all the layers, all the taught behaviour, the learned behaviour, the experienced behaviour, you start to peel all that away - and at the end of the day, we’re all humans.” • Through @RootsandShoots the global youth service program @JaneGoodallInst founded in 1991, she has created and encouraged a global youth community to recognise the power of their individual strength – that each day you live, you can make a difference.

"But I've always thought: This place is borrowed. And, surely, being as intelligent as we all are, or as evolved as we all are supposed to be, we should be able to leave something better behind for the next generation."

"I always think to myself, whenever there’s another natural disaster, a huge increase in volcano eruptions or earthquakes or flooding, how many clues does nature have to give us before we actually learn, or wake ourselves up to the damage and the destruction that we're causing?"
