Meghan Markle Shares Prince Harry's Unique Royal Parenting Style With Prince Archie & Princess Lilibet
Prince Harry is a hands-on father. That's what Meghan Markle is making sure royal fans know — his best role in life is as Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet's, 4, dad. His proactive role in his children's lives was seen in the Duchess of Sussex's sweet Father's Day tribute to her husband on Instagram. The adorable moments were captured in a tender video and gave her followers a more intimate look at their personal lives — and they look happy! Meghan shared her love for Harry by captioning the video, 'The best. Happy Father's Day to our favorite guy.' She added a two-pink-heart emoji and added Jason Mraz's single, 'Have It All (Acoustic) to the clip. More from SheKnows Megan Fox & Machine Gun Kelly Reveal Their Newborn Daughter's Name - & It's Both Poetic & Edgy Most of the footage was from Archie and Lilibet's younger years (probably to protect their privacy), but we can't help but smile at the dad milestones Harry has been able to witness — from teaching his son how to ride a bike to taking a father-daughter beach walk with his daughter. It's the everyday activities his late mother, Princess Diana, appreciated despite her royal title. She tried to give Princes William and Harry a normal childhood even though they were very famous young boys. In the last year, the Duke of Sussex has doubled down on his decision to move to the U.S. after exiting the royal family – it was the right move for his family. 'I enjoy living [in the U.S.] and bringing my kids up here,' Harry at The New York Times' DealBook Summit in December 2024. 'It's a part of my life that I never thought I was going to live, and it feels as though it's the life that my mom wanted for me. I want my kids to grow up with the opportunity to be themselves.' Princess Diana's parenting style was imprinted on Harry at a young age even though she passed in 1997, he has never wavered from her teachings. 'My main goal is to be the best dad and husband I can be,' he added. It's not much different from what Diana told the press in her years as a royal. 'I will fight for my children on any level so they can reach their potential as human beings, and in their public duties,' she said in her BBC interview with Martin Bashir in 1995. Instead of having a household of staff raising her children, she made sure she was entrenched in William and Harry's lives. Harry has never doubted his mother's love and he's making sure Archie and Lilibet experience every ounce of that care through him — it's a way for Diana's legacy to live on. 'I can still feel the hugs that she used to give us,' Harry said in the 2017 TV documentary Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy. 'I miss that feeling. I miss having that mother to give you those hugs and that compassion that everyone needs.'Best of SheKnows Celebrity Parents Who Are So Proud of Their LGBTQ Kids Recent Baby & Toddler Product Recalls Every Parent and Caregiver Should Know About These Podcasts for Parents of Teens Will Make You Feel Seen

Meghan Markle's Father's Day tribute to Harry speaks volumes on 'compromised life'
Meghan Markle uploaded a sweet video montage of Harry with Archie and Lilibet on Father's Day but a royal expert has said her post is very telling for one reason. Prince Harry's Father's Day tribute from Meghan Markle proves he "doesn't have it all" despite the song it is set to, according to a royal expert. The Duchess of Sussex posted a video montage to Instagram showing Harry alongside their two, kids Archie and Lilibet, set to the song Have It All by Jason Mraz. The compilation showed snaps and videos of devoted father Harry laughing, dancing and spending some quality time with his children over the years. Meghan captioned the post: "The best. Happy Father's Day to our favourite guy." The post came just hours after the duke's estranged brother Prince William was also seen in a new snap with his three kids in an upload by the official Prince and Princess of Wales social media accounts. Kensington Palace said the snaps were taken by professional photographer Josh Sinner in Norfolk earlier this year. According to royal expert and historian Dr Tessa Dunlop, there was a vast difference between the two posts. She told the Mirror: "Hail Prince William, the model father. Or rather the model English father, with a before-and-after duo of professional photographs featuring a handsome, upstanding man, beautifully blended with his children; a foursome united in different shades of 'Norfolk' green. "The post dropped early on Father's Day via Kensington Palace's Instagram account, giving that other royal family plenty of time to tweak their own paternal efforts for a later LA release. "In Britain, it was bedtime before we caught a sneaky peak of the Sussexes' alternative Californian vibe: Harry the hands-on dad - forget formal posing in tweedy greens, this was 'au naturel'. Well, sort of. "A hotch-potch of sunbaked vibes, bubble machines and sea-side shots cast to the Jason Mraz track 'Have it all.' Except Harry doesn't have it all." It comes as body language guru Judi James underlined a striking contrast between Meghan's Father's Day post and Kate Middleton's photo - claiming there is a hidden message for Archie and Lilibet. She said: "The basic display tone of this video, that is a narrative of clips of Harry being a father, is very different to the one the UK royals tend to use for their Father's Day poses. "There is also a very strong message of freedom for the children and Harry here, too. There is a lot of running and walking away from the camera to continue to reject a more public profile but it's the recurring theme of the bare feet too." The tribute to the duke comes just weeks after he spoke about his feud with his own father King Charles, stating he would love to reconcile with him during a BBC interview. Tessa added: "Despite his professed desire to resume relations with his own father the King, the Duke of Sussex remains something of an orphan, stranded on the other side of the Atlantic. A discordant backdrop that cast his otherwise happy little video in a poignant light. "Poor Harry. These days having it all even means sharing images of his children's faces, albeit blurry ones taken when they were much younger. "Such are the compromises celebrities make when no longer protected by the royal coffers. Meghan's Instagram account is a hungry beast. "Long gone are the effortless days of a shared fraternal photograph; it was 2017 when William and Harry posted an early photograph with their dear Papa in the Scottish Highlands for Father's Day. "It had been declared the holiday snap indicative of the brothers' close bond, proof that when it comes to the Royal Family, what you see is only ever half the story."

"And I did like a little secret cheer, cause I was like, well, that's what I kind of want to see from you. Like I wanna see that happiness and that honesty and that 'I don't give a f***' kind of thing." Breaking her silence, Meghan spoke about the footage, stating: "That was four years ago. So it's also a really great reminder that with all the noise or whatever people do, there's still a whole life - a real, authentic, fun life - that's happening behind the scenes.

Meg is plastering Harry's most intimate moments with kids online – he won't be happy… but she won't care, expert slams
Meghan and Harry were previously wary about showing their kids' faces on social media 'PUBLICITY STUNT' Meg is plastering Harry's most intimate moments with kids online – he won't be happy… but she won't care, expert slams Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PRINCE Harry would be "uncomfortable" with Meghan posting personal videos of him and their children for Father's Day, an expert has claimed. The heartwarming footage of Archie and Lilibet was posted on Instagram with Jason Mraz's hit 'Have It All' playing in the background. 6 Meghan posted a sweet video of Harry with the kids on Instagram 6 The couple were previously very cautious about showing their kids' faces 6 The deeply personal video may have made Harry 'uncomfortable', an expert said Credit: Instagram "The best," she captioned her post. "Happy Father's Day to our favorite guy." The compilation showed photos and videos of Harry laughing, dancing and spending quality time with his children through the years. The Duchess has been more open with posting her children this year, amid her new business ventures. Royal expert Ingrid Seward told The Sun that although the videos are "charming", sharing them on social media is "hypocritical" of the couple who claimed to want privacy. She said: "I think the problem with the video that Megan's put out, which is actually charming, is it's really very hypocritical, because they begged for privacy. They refused to let their children's faces be seen. "In fact, at the beginning, there was just like one or two photographs of their children. "And now suddenly Meghan is flooding the market with photographs of their children, and this goes absolutely against everything they wanted. "Meghan is doing all these things in her anxiety to get publicity for herself, so that she can improve her money-making powers. "I think their whole lives online is a publicity stunt. Everything that they do online is aimed at them being able to make more money. "Otherwise why on earth would they do it? Because, remember, they've spoken about social media and how damaging it can be, especially for young kids, and how worried they are about it. "And then the next thing you know is Megan is posting quite personal, very charming pictures of her husband and the children all over everywhere, through her Instagram account. So it just doesn't make sense." Ingrid added: "I would love to know what Harry thought, but I suspect he might be a little uncomfortable, because Harry isn't really a great self promoter. Unlike his wife, who is." She suggested that the protection of Harry's "royal persona" before he left the Firm suited him because he could "hide behind" it. "I think he would prefer to be a little more circumspect about who saw photographs of him and his family, but I can't imagine that Meghan would have done it without without his knowledge." It comes after Prince William's children wished him a Happy Father's Day in a heartwarming post on social media. The sweet message was posted on the official Instagram account of the Prince and Princess of Wales on behalf of young royals George, Charlotte and Louis. One is a portrait shot showing Wills standing with his arms around Prince George, 11,and Princess Charlotte, 10, while seven-year-old Prince Louis stands in front of him. Another black and white picture shared showed the four lying on the grass laughing in an embrace. The post was captioned: "Happy Father's Day, Papa (before and after!). We love you! G, C & L," accompanied by a love heart. The heartwarming photographs were taken by Josh Shinner earlier this year in Norfolk. Ingrid explained the difference between the two heartwarming posts: "The the Waleses are the future of the monarchy, and they're very aware of that, and I think everything that they do is very carefully thought through. "Because they're deeply concerned about their children and how they bring them up, and I think that these gorgeous photographs, which look very informal, are actually quite staged in a very, very nice way. "It's 'We'll give the public a bit of our children, because they need to see the future of the monarchy. They need to see it, but we're not going to give them too much'." 6 Meghan has been accused of using her children for her brand Credit: instagram/meghan 6 The couple have taken care to hide their kids' faces in the past Credit: Instagram
