Baby Archie is just six months old, but he's already met a number of impressive luminaries, ranging from his great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth to tennis star Serena Williams to civil rights activist Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

Now this week, the Sussexes' son reportedly spent time with former first lady and secretary of state Hillary Clinton.

According to the Daily Mail's Rebecca English, Clinton came to visit Meghan and Archie at Frogmore Cottage on Tuesday.

"Both women have a lot of admiration for each other and it was a very sweet, warm meeting," a source told English. "They are mutual fan girls!"

Clinton's visit comes just a few days after she showed her support for Meghan during a BBC Radio interview.

"To think that some of your—what we would call mainstream—media actually allowed that to be printed in their pages, or amplified, was heartbreaking and wrong," Clinton said, when asked about the duchess's struggles with the tabloid press.

"She is an amazing young woman, she has an incredible life story. She has stood up for herself, she has made her own way in the world. And then she falls in love, and he falls in love with her, and everybody should be celebrating that because it is a true love story."

On a more personal note, Clinton also said she wanted to give Meghan a hug.

"I feel as a mother I just want to put my arms around her. Oh my God, I want to hug her. I want to tell her to hang in there, don't let those bad guys get you down," she said.

"It is tough what she is going through and I think she deserves a lot better."
