Meghan has recently been sharing more family moments with her followers. On April 5, the mom of two posted a sweet Easter video featuring Archie and Lilibet decorating Easter eggs and enjoying an exciting egg hunt together.
Days earlier, on April 2, she shared another clip showing Archie skiing alongside Prince Harry as they glided down a snowy hill.
“My boys. Quick learner, Archie! So proud,” the proud mom wrote.
Markle is focused on building a normal life for her kids.
Since stepping back from their royal duties in 2020, Meghan, 44, and Harry, 41, have been raising their children in Montecito, California, while focusing on creating a more private and grounded upbringing for their family, according to People. Meghan has previously spoken about wanting to give Archie and Lilibet a sense of everyday normalcy.
“Once you know us, I think you want us to have the same normalcy as parents and for our children as they do,” Meghan shared with the outlet in 2025.
A sense of normalcy for Meghan and Harry also means creating fun, meaningful experiences where their children can connect, play, and build friendships.
“We hosted a little camp because winter break was long!” Meghan told People last year. “We had several days with different families at our home, and we were able to get to know the parents better, and all the kids could play.”
The couple organized obstacle courses and face painting activities for the children.
“It’s a dream,” she shared. “But I also know that being part of a community means you put effort into it.”
For Meghan, normal life also includes enjoying casual nights out with Harry and close friends.
“We go to a lot of dinners, and not just in people’s homes or private rooms; we just go into the restaurant,” she shared. “I really love that we can just have fun.”
She also treasures spending quality one-on-one time with her children. Reflecting on some of her favorite moments with Archie, Meghan shared:
“Archie and I like to go and have lunch, share a burger and a Caesar salad, and have an ice cream sundae with two cherries on top,” she said.
