Meghan Markle has shared two new photos to celebrate daughter Lilibet’s 5th birthday. 

.....

The Duchess of Sussex took to Instagram on Thursday, June 4, to share the photos. 

One photo shows the barefoot child with long red hair covering her face, being held in Prince Harry’s arms as he looks at her affectionately. 

Meghan stands beside Harry with her arm on his shoulder, smiling at their daughter. 

The duchess wrote in the post: “Our dream girl. Happy 5th birthday, Lili”, followed by a white heart emoji.

She also shared another photo showing Lilibet standing barefoot on the grass in the sunshine, wearing a summer dress. Lilibet is seen reaching out to touch the flowers of a blue-purple agapanthus, commonly known as the Lily of the Nile or African Lily. 
 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s daughter is the granddaughter of the current British monarch, King Charles. She was born on June 4 2021, in the US and named Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor. 

She became entitled to use the title Princess only when King Charles acceded to the throne, under rules set out by King George V in 1917. 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle began using the titles Prince and Princess for Archie and Lili after Lilibet’s christening in 2023, following correspondence with King Charles about the matter.
