Meghan shares sweet snap of her and daughter Lilibet on beach for International Women’s Day – giving ‘Papa Sussex’ photography credits
Meghan Markle shares tender moment with daughter Lilibet on International Women’s Day
On International Women’s Day, Meghan Markle posted a touching image of herself and her four-year-old daughter, Princess Lilibet, enjoying a seaside outing. The photo captures the pair snuggled together on a rocky outcrop, radiating warmth and connection.
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, revealed in her caption that the snapshot was taken by Prince Harry, whom she playfully dubs ‘Papa Sussex.’ The caption reads:
‘For the woman she will one day be… Happy International Women’s Day. (Camera emoji): Papa Sussex.’
Despite their usual habit of keeping their children’s identities private, the couple has recently taken a more open approach. While they often obscure faces in photos or frame shots from behind, this weekend’s image marked a departure from their traditional discretion.
Five years prior, Meghan had unveiled Lilibet’s face in a Valentine’s Day post, showcasing the child with Prince Harry. The caption for that moment read:
‘These two + Archie = my forever Valentines.’
The couple’s privacy-first strategy, reportedly shaped by Harry’s desire to protect their children from public exposure, has evolved over time. Recent posts suggest a growing willingness to share glimpses of their family life, though their brand remains distinct from the media spotlight.
A representative for Meghan’s As Ever brand noted that the partnership with Netflix was a success, citing rapid growth during the first year. However, the brand is now poised for independent expansion, with Meghan aiming to ‘go global’ and establish her own identity beyond the streaming giant’s influence.
Netflix acknowledged Meghan’s role in the brand’s development, stating that her focus on everyday moments inspired its creation. The company expressed support for her future endeavors, emphasizing her ability to ‘bring joy to households around the world.’
