Duchess Meghan has shared never-before-seen photos of her daughter, Lilibet, on Instagram. The 43-year-old posted a black and white photograph of her hugging her daughter on what appears to be a boat.
The Duchess of Sussex also posted a throwback photo from 2021 of a newborn Lilibet, with Meghan cradling the baby to her chest.
The photos were posted in order to celebrate Lilibet’s fourth birthday, with the caption reading: “Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives - and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!”
Later, Meghan also shared a video of labour with Lilibet. She is seen dancing alongside her husband to try and ease the process along. Elsewhere, more uploaded photos showed Prince Harry bonding with his baby daughter.
Both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are fiercely protective of their children’s privacy, with Meghan usually only posting photos of Lilibet from behind or covering her face.
However, in this latest snap shared on socials, you can see the top half of Lilibet’s face, with the bottom half obscured by Meghan’s embrace.
Meghan has taken to posting more and more tidbits of family life since she returned to Instagram earlier this year.
Last week, she shared a video of her and Lilibet in matching beekeepers’ outfits as they went to harvest honeycomb. “Harvesting honey with my little honey,” she wrote at the time, (Like mother, like daughter; she’s even wearing my gloves).”
Meanwhile for Mother’s Day, Meghan shared another photo of her carrying both her children.
“Cheers to juggling it all with joy!” she wrote. “And to these two gems - who still attempt to climb “mama mountain”, smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure….being your mom is the greatest privilege of my life.”
Lilibet is the youngest child of Meghan and Harry, and was born in the US, a year after the pair decided to step back from being senior royals.
The couple also share six-year-old Prince Archie.
