On May 19, Meghan Markle celebrated her seventh wedding anniversary with husband Prince Harry by sharing a delightful mood board filled with never-before-seen photos. This unique collection not only features intimate moments between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex but also precious glimpses of their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Typically, the couple has chosen to protect their children's privacy by only showing them from the back or side, making this reveal even more special for fans and followers.
The mood board showcases a variety of loving photographs that span nearly a decade, from the early days of Harry and Meghan's relationship in 2016 to their life as a family today. Among the images, a touching photograph of Archie's ultrasound is placed next to a heartwarming picture of Harry cradling Archie's face on his birthday, May 6, 2019. Additionally, a striking image of a very pregnant Meghan, likely with Archie, adds depth to the narrative of their growing family, though it remains ambiguous whether the photo was taken during her pregnancy with Archie or Lilibet.
Further down the mood board, viewers are treated to an adorable photograph that appears to show baby Archie, followed by a sweet snapshot of Archie and Lilibet sharing a kiss. On the left side, familiar images of the children captured from behind and the side are included, showcasing the couple's commitment to their children's privacy. In the center, a joyous moment of Harry and Meghan with Archie and Lilibet painting pumpkins perfectly encapsulates the essence of family life. Two additional photos depict the family enjoying a day at the beach, reinforcing the bond they share.
In her heartfelt post, Meghan included the touching message, “Seven years of marriage, a lifetime of stories.” She expressed her gratitude to their supporters, saying, “Thanks to all of you (whether by our side, or from afar) who have loved and supported us throughout our love story—we appreciate you.” To conclude her message, she wished her husband a happy anniversary, accompanied by a red heart emoji, adding a personal touch to the celebration.
Reflecting on her journey as a mother, Meghan shared insights with People magazine in March. “When your children get to a certain age—when you’re not just playing in the sandbox with them but almost playing in your own sandbox again—it’s super joyful,” she remarked. She elaborated on the significance of finding herself again as a woman, a mom, and a wife, highlighting the profound joy that comes with raising her children, Archie, who recently turned 6, and Lilibet, who will celebrate her fourth birthday on June 4.
This anniversary post not only highlights Meghan and Harry's enduring love but also emphasizes the importance of family and the joys of parenthood. As they continue to navigate life in the public eye, moments like these remind us of the personal stories that shape their journey together.
