Do we know the gender and name?

There were pictures on Prince Henri's Instagram account. Two little girls and a baby boy playing with puppies. Prince Henri was mentioning them as his children. They looked quite like each other (siblings) and the baby was clearly a boy.
It was posted on Nobiliana by someone, who has access to this private account.
No names mentioned
