Mad Dogs & Englishmen Bike Shop in Montecito, California, have said that they did not give a bike to Archie, the son of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. They said that Harry and Meghan bought the bike themselves.
The owners of the bike shop made this statement after a letter from Harry and Meghan thanking them for the gift was published in the media. The letter said that the bike had "brought much joy" to Archie.

The owners of the bike shop said that they were "surprised" by the letter and that they had not been contacted by Harry and Meghan before it was published. They said that they were "happy" that Archie was enjoying the bike, but that they had not given it to him as a gift.
It is not clear why Harry and Meghan claimed that they had received the bike as a gift. It is possible that they simply made a mistake, or that they were trying to avoid any controversy.
The incident has raised questions about the relationship between Harry and Meghan and the media. Some people have accused Harry and Meghan of trying to deceive the public, while others have defended them, saying that they were simply trying to thank the owners of the bike shop for their generosity.
The incident is a reminder of the challenges that Harry and Meghan face as they try to carve out a new life for themselves outside of the royal family. They are constantly under scrutiny from the media, and they are often criticized for their actions.
It remains to be seen how Harry and Meghan will handle the challenges that they face in the future. However, it is clear that they are determined to live their lives on their own terms.
