The Duchess of Sussex has shared a charming video of herself and her daughter engaging in beekeeping, both wearing matching protective suits. Meghan Markle uploaded the brief clip, which showcased the adorable moment, to her Instagram story, set to the tune of ‘Sugar, Sugar’ by the fictional band, The Archies.
The Duchess was seen strolling hand in hand with Princess Lilibet, who toddled along in rainbow-coloured Wellington boots. Meghan bent down to pat her daughter’s back before grabbing her hand again. Last week, she posted pictures of the young princess, alongside snapshots of Prince Archie and the Duke of Sussex, as part of a commemorative post for her and Harry’s seventh wedding anniversary.
Included in the images were several photos of the couple in an embrace, and one of the duke tenderly holding the head of one of their children as a swaddled newborn.
Also featured was a baby scan labelled ‘Archie’, a photo of Archie planting a kiss on Lili’s forehead, and several notes, including a central one penned by Meghan that read “Our love story”.
In the most recent episode of her podcast, Meghan spoke openly about motherhood, confessing it wasn’t how she “envisioned it” and revealing she had intended to deliver speeches “with a baby on my hip”.
Meghan stepped back from her role as a senior working Royal for a new life in the US when Archie was 10 months old, amid the chaos of Megxit.
Meghan Markle, in a candid conversation with Cassandra Thurswell, founder of eco-friendly hair and beauty brand Kitsch, during her ‘Confessions Of A Female Founder’ series, revealed that she faced “lot of external things happening” throughout her pregnancies and when her children were infants.
The Duchess, who became a Royal by marriage in 2018, said: “I will say, for myself – especially when they are baby babies and, yes, the crying, before I was mum, I’ve always wanted to be a mum.”
She added: “I was like ‘Oh gosh, I’m going to give a speech with a baby on my hip’.”
