Meghan Markle shares delivery room twerking video to celebrate daughter Lilibet's birthday
Turning four is a big deal and Meghan Markle is celebrating daughter Lilibet achieving the milestone with an Instagram blitz of intimate photos — and even a video of her and Prince Harry dancing in the delivery room on the day she was born.
In an extraordinary insight into their private lives, the former senior royals can be seen in a viral TikTok-style video busting a move.
Meghan and Harry are known to fiercely guard the privacy of Lilibet and Archie but appear to have changed their tune.
Clutching her very pregnant belly and with an IV port in her left arm, in the video, Meghan looks calm and happy as she twerks to The Baby Momma Dance by Starrkeisha from 2013.
Prince Harry also makes an appearance throwing down his best dad moves.

Meghan joked that the dancing was a last resort to bring on the birth, given Lilibet was a week overdue at the time.
'Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work - there was only one thing left to do!' Meghan wrote alongside the video.
Meghan has also shared a photo of a touching moment between Prince Harry and his then baby daughter lovingly making eye contact and another of the pair barefoot and dressed casually walking on a dirt road while holding hands.
'The sweetest bond to watch unfold. Daddy's little girl and favorite adventurer,' she wrote.
The first social media post in the birthday photo blitz was of Meghan, apparently on a boat, make-up free and with windswept hair cuddling Lili.
'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!'
Lilibet is Meghan and Prince Harry second child, their first, Archie, is two years older. She was born on June 4, 2021 — a year after the pair's infamous 'Megxit' from the UK and royal duties.
Her full name is Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, a nod to Prince Harry's grandmother Queen Elizabeth and his mother Princess Diana.

Aussie singles survive day one of being stranded together
One of the most extreme and radical dating experiences to hit TV has arrived. Stranded on Honeymoon Island sees 12 unlucky-in-love Aussie singles marry a complete stranger who they met at a speed-dating event just two weeks prior. After tying the knot, the six couples are dumped on a deserted island where they will spend 21 days in isolation — love will either bloom or dreams of a happy ending will come crashing down. On the first episode, we are first introduced to Byron, a 33-year-old electrician from Queensland who loves to surf and eat pizza with mates. He reveals he lost his mum at just 15 and has always distracted himself from the grief by being busy, but as a result of his packed schedule, his dating life got pushed to the side. Byron is paired with 28-year-old Melbourne performer Brie who describes herself as 'bubbly and crazy'. She has never had a serious boyfriend and has never been in love. Brie and Byron.

Brie feels 'happy and relaxed' and Byron says he is one 'lucky guy'. The newlyweds begin to get on like a house fire thanks to Brie's quirky personality but she soon starts to become overwhelmed with the big life change. Commitment is one of her biggest fears and she usually runs away from men as soon as it begins to get serious — but you can't run from island life. She says she doesn't want to self-sabotage her relationship. During the episode, viewers are introduced to the second couple where they meet 30-year-old Queenslander, Amy, who is also looking to meet the love of her life. The 'outrageous and fun princess' has had a lot of bad luck when it comes to men and has become known on TikTok for sharing her horrid dating stories. After the speed dating event, she hoped to marry handsome AFL player Hayden, who wooed her over with his salmon pink suit jacket and man bun. However, she is immediately disappointed when she sees New Zealander Mike waiting for her at the altar. While the pair struggle through some cringy vows and seal their marriage with a quick kiss, Amy does admit that Mike seems fun and she wants to give him a chance. But once they are on the island, Mike's chance of winning over Amy starts to deplete as the two big personalities collide and a power struggle ensues. Both want to be the dominate one in the relationship and Mike doesn't understand why Amy won't let him 'be the man'. Next up is 46-year-old Chad who works in orthopaedics helping to save people's limbs before amputation is needed. His family life has complicated his dating experiences as he has spent a lot of time helping his mum care for his sister who has special needs. Chad said he is doing the experiment so there are no distractions stopping him from getting to know his potential love. Chad's lucky lady is Georgia who is over the moon to find out she is marrying him. While finding love is a first for Chad, it's not Georgia's first rodeo. She was once engaged for a planned destination wedding but her husband-to-be pulled out three days before their big day. 'It was a dagger to the heart,' Georgia said. 'I'm very scared to get married again but I want love and a Disney fairytale ending I didn't have last time.' Georgia is obsessed with Chad's tanned skin and dark features and is more than happy to be stranded with him The new couple seal their marriage with a kiss on the cheek. Georgia and Chad. Credit: Supplied With the marriages out of the way, night soon begins to fall on Honeymoon Island and sleeping arrangements between each pair needs to be sorted out. Each couple contemplates their first night as husband and wife and sleeping in the elements. The next day each couple is still trying to figure each other out and navigate living on a deserted island. Brie's commitment fears are in full swing and as soon as she hears the word wife, she 'wants to swim away'. But her struggle to be open with her emotions has left her withdrawn from Byron who starts to wonder if she's shutting down because of him. With 24 hours alone on the island now complete, the next stage of the experience soon arrives. Mysterious orange crates arrive in the water, with the couples sent out to retrieve and open them. A crate will be sent every week with each one containing surprises, tips and relationship tests. The first crate is an individual video message from the contestants' families back home, offering advice, warnings and support. The word from home brings a lot of comfort to Brie and Amy who have been feeling emotional. It's enough for Amy to finally get real and confront Mike for making her feel 'belittled and uncomfortable' following his controlling behaviour at times. 'It's nightmare island,' she said. With some questioning their decision to sign up, to others calling each other 'babe' on the first day, episode two is set to unpack more drama as we meet three more couples also hoping to fall in love. Watch Stranded On Honeymoon Island then answer the daily question for your chance to win a five night stay at the Berkeley River Lodge. CLICK HERE TO ENTER THE COMPETITION

Anna Camp defends 18-year age gap with girlfriend
Don't miss out on the headlines from Hook Ups & Break Ups. Followed categories will be added to My News. Anna Camp, 42, defended her relationship with girlfriend Jade Whipkey, 24, following backlash to their 18-year age difference. 'I've dated men exactly my age and Jade is FAR more mature than any of them,' the actress wrote in the comments of an Instagram post celebrating their red carpet debut last week. 'We have more in common than anyone else I've ever dated and can literally talk about anything and everything,' Camp continued. 'Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I'm wishing everyone well. Especially this Pride month.' The star's response came after several online users expressed their disapproval over her romance with Whipkey. Actress Anna Camp and her girlfriend, stylist Jade Whipkey. Picture: AFP. 'Just cuz they are gay doesn't excuse the weird ahh age gap [sic],' one critic commented on the same Instagram post. 'I'm in my mid 30s and I can't imagine having the necessary common ground to start a relationship with a 20 year old. What could they possibly have in common?' another wrote. A third person claimed, 'Regardless of celebrity or gender: if a 42 year old is with a 24 year old, it's about power or control, even on a subconscious level.' Camp and Whipkey made their red carpet debut last Wednesday at the Los Angeles premiere of 'Bride Hard' at the DGA Theatre Complex. Camp defended her romance on social media after facing criticism from some fans. Picture: AFP. They smiled happily and wrapped their arms around each other while posing for photos at the event. The actress and the on-set stylist confirmed their romance with a photo shared on Instagram Stories in May. 'Her smile is a poem, her eyes are roses, her laugh is music for dancing,' Whipkey captioned the snap of Camp at an outdoor restaurant. Days later, the duo was seen passionately kissing while out in LA. Camp was previously linked to drummer Michael Johnson following her divorce from Skylar Astin. She and her Pitch Perfect co-star were married for three years from 2016 to 2019. This story originally appeared on Page Six and is republished here with permission.
