Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have unveiled the first public photo of their daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
The heartwarming family snapshot includes the couple with both their children — baby Lilibet and their son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. In the picture, Meghan is cradling six-month-old Lilibet.
The pair wrote in their holiday card, “This year, 2021, we were overjoyed to welcome our daughter, Lilibet, into the world. Archie made us a ‘Mama’ and a ‘Papa,’ and Lili completed our family.”
Now living in California, Meghan, 40, and Harry, 37, stepped away from their official royal roles last year.
Last year, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry cut financial dependence on the royal household, instead securing major contracts with Netflix and Apple TV+.
Earlier in the year, the pair alleged racial bias by a senior royal figure during their revealing sit-down with Oprah Winfrey.
The duo recently released the first official image of their daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor. In their festive greeting, they shared their happiness, writing, “This year, 2021, we welcomed Lilibet. Archie made us parents, and Lili made us a family.”
Since stepping away from royal life in 2020, Meghan, 40, and Prince Harry, 37, have settled in California and reached financial independence from the monarchy. They’ve landed major partnerships with platforms like Netflix and Apple TV+. Their bombshell 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey stunned audiences worldwide—especially the moment they revealed a senior royal had made racist remarks about their son Archie’s possible skin tone, igniting important conversations about race and royalty. Amid the backlash, Harry and Meghan have stayed focused on raising their kids out of the public eye while pursuing both philanthropic work and creative ventures—their most recent family photo showcasing just how much family means to them.
