Meghan Markle Shares Adorable New Disney Photos With Prince Harry, Lilibet and Archie
Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, shared brand-new family photos at Disney, featuring Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and their children, Prince Archie of Sussex and Princess Lilibet of Sussex. The photos also include Markle's mother, Doria Ragland.
The carousel of photos, which was shared to Markle's official Instagram account, include shots of the family surrounded by Mickey Mouse balloons, walking through the park with Mickey Mouse hats and meeting various Disney characters, including the princesses Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty.
The carousel hilariously ends with an image of Markle, Prince Harry, Archie and Lilibet standing in front of Darth Vader and a few stormtroopers, and it looks like Lilibet was less than enthusiastic about that development, as she appears to be hiding from the characters behind her dad.
As has been consistently true of Markle's Instagram over the last several months, although she is sharing images of her kids, she only posts photos that do not show their faces, with very little exception. In the Disney photos, all the images posted are either taken from behind the family members or obscure the kids' faces in some other way.
This decision to keep Archie and Lilibet's faces out of the public eye has always been in stark contrast to how the British Royal Family typically operates when it comes to press and media. As Prince Harry has spoken about multiple times, when he was young, it was the expectation that he was going to be photographed-something that he has consistently expressed unhappiness over.
With their move to the United States in 2020, the Sussexes were making it clear that they were going to be breaking with certain royal traditions, and among them has certainly been the notion that their children's images should be shared with the public. Archie and Lilibet are now seven and four years old (almost five, in June), respectively, and neither has been seen by the public very often.
However, as Archie lived much of his first year of life in the United Kingdom, with his parents as working royals, his image was much more public when he was an infant.
