Meghan Markle recently shared a lighthearted and heartfelt Mother’s Day moment with her children, giving fans a rare look into her life as a mom.
Shortly after Meghan and Prince Harry were the subject of a sharp skit on Saturday Night Live, the Duchess of Sussex offered a softer contrast by posting a candid family photo featuring her son Archie, 6, and daughter Lilibet, 3.
She paired the image with a touching message, opening with a cheerful “Happy Mother’s Day!” on Sunday, May 11.
“Cheers to juggling it all with joy!” she wrote, showing herself with her arms full, as Archie and Lilibet clung to her like “mama mountain.”
She continued, “To these two gems – who still attempt to climb ‘mama mountain,’ smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure.”

Calling motherhood the “greatest privilege of [her] life,” Meghan concluded her post with a sweet sentiment: “I, too, ‘love you more than all the stars in all the sky, all the raindrops, and all the salt on all the french fries in all the world.’”
Her touching tribute came just after SNL took aim at the Sussexes during a “Weekend Update” segment.
During the bit, host Colin Jost, 42, joked, “President Trump also announced a new trade deal with the UK that will reopen British markets for American companies. All that Britain demands in return is that we keep these two,” as a photo of Harry and Meghan appeared onscreen.
Earlier this year, Meghan rejoined Instagram and has since been sharing glimpses of her life in Montecito, California.
On May 9, the couple were seen attending Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter concert at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. The two looked relaxed and affectionate during the outing.
“About last night…. Thank you @beyonce and team for an amazing concert (and a very fun date night)! All love,” Meghan captioned a series of photos from the event’s VIP area.
One of the images featured Prince Harry’s Kemo Sabe cowboy hat, decorated with symbols representing the American and British flags, an outline of Africa, and the California flag. Around the brim were the words “Archie,” “Lili,” and “my love.”
Meghan also recently appeared on The Jamie Kern Lima Show podcast, where she spoke warmly about Harry and their relationship.
“There’s something that is not to be taken for granted when you have a partner and a spouse who is just so behind you,” she said. “I mean, H, that man loves me so much. And you know, look what we built. We’ve built a beautiful life, and we have two healthy, beautiful children.”
Prince Harry and Meghan stepped down from their senior royal roles in 2020 and relocated to the U.S. to raise their family.
More recently, Harry lost his appeal in a legal battle over the removal of his automatic police protection when visiting the UK. Following the court’s decision, he expressed reluctance to return home with his family.
“I can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the U.K. at this point,” the 40-year-old royal told the BBC earlier this month.
He admitted he misses Britain and finds it “really quite sad” that his children won’t have the chance to experience his homeland.
“The things that they’re going to miss is, well, everything,” he said. “I love my country. I always have done. Despite what some people in that country have done.”
Meghan’s Mother’s Day post sparked a variety of reactions online, with netizens expressing mixed opinions.
