Meghan Markle gives rare glimpse of daughter Lilibet in sweet Valentine's day post
London, February 15
Meghan Markle has offered the clearest glimpse yet of her four-year-old daughter, Princess Lilibet, sharing a new photograph to mark Valentine's Day.
In an Instagram post, the Duchess of Sussex unveiled a candid image of her husband, Prince Harry, smiling as he cradles Princess Lilibet in a grassy field at sunset.
The young royal is seen clutching a set of red balloons in the heartwarming snap. Alongside the image, Meghan wrote, "These two + Archie = my forever Valentines," adding a red heart emoji in tribute to her family.
The post marks a rare moment for the couple, who have largely kept their children out of the public eye. It is the clearest public photo yet of Princess Lilibet's face. Meghan and Harry are also parents to six-year-old Prince Archie.
The Valentine's Day tribute comes as Meghan continues to balance family life with her professional ventures. The former 'Suits' actor, who stars in 'With Love, Meghan,' has often spoken about the strength of her relationship with Harry, whose romance with Meghan began in 2016 and has been closely followed ever since.
As per E! News, in an earlier interview, Meghan reflected on why their relationship endures. "He loves me so boldly, fully, and he also has a different perspective because he sees media that I wouldn't," she said, adding, "No one in the world loves me more than him, so I know he's always going to make sure that he has my back."
Beyond her role as a duchess and media personality, Meghan is also the founder of lifestyle brand 'As Ever'. In the same interview, she discussed how motherhood shapes her approach to business.
"I'm a mom with kids at that age where they are constantly learning something new," she said, adding, "I watch them face things that feel completely insurmountable every day. I can give myself the same grace as a founder. There's no such thing as perfect."
She added that she hopes to instill courage in her children through her work. "I hope they see the value of being brave," Meghan shared, adding, "I think you are a little bit more fearless. As we get older, we lose some of that."
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle started dating in 2016 and married in a lavish Windsor ceremony in 2018. In 2020, they famously stepped back from royal duties to pursue financial independence in California.

Honestly, I find the constant media coverage a bit much. They left the royal family for privacy, but every little post becomes global news. Can't we just let them live? Good for them for keeping the kids mostly out of it though.
The photo is very sweet. As a mother myself, I understand wanting to share a precious moment while also protecting your children. Her comments about motherhood and business are quite relatable for working parents everywhere.
It's a lovely picture, but part of me feels this is also a calculated PR move. They are media personalities now, after all. Still, no denying the little one is cute. Hope they find the peace they were looking for in the US.
The way Harry is looking at his daughter is everything! 🥹 So much love. Good on Meghan for building her own brand and trying to be a role model for her kids. "There's no such thing as perfect" is a great lesson for all of us.
From an Indian perspective, their story is like a modern-day fairy tale with a twist. They faced immense pressure and chose family and mental health over duty and tradition. Respect for that. The sunset photo is very peaceful.
