People Spotted One Unusual Detail In Meghan Markle's Rare Photo of Her Kids: "Like His Daddy..."
In a recent post this week, Markle was seen holding Archie and Lilibet in a plush garden. But one detail caught the attention of royal fans.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry left the UK in 2020 to live a quiet life in California. The couple, who have been vocal about protecting their kids' privacy, have largely kept their kids out of the spotlight. However, as Markle returned to social media earlier this year, she has been sharing rare snaps of her kids. In a recent post this week, Markle was seen holding Archie and Lilibet in a plush garden. But what caught the attention of royal fans was her children’s height.
As reported by Daily Express, while Markle disabled the comments on her post, the picture soon made the rounds on X (formerly Twitter). Fans pointed out that Prince Archie had grown tall and had red hair like his father. Others found it odd that Lilibet didn't seem to have grown much. Netizens also bashed Markle for not showing her children’s faces on social media. They pointed out that her need for privacy stands null when she continues to tease fans with faceless photos of her kids.
Adorable. Long legs like his Daddy

As per Hello! magazine, on X, a person taking note of Archie’s height, remarked, “Adorable. Long legs like his Daddy.” Another netizen gushed, “Beautiful Prince and Princess with beautiful unique hair color ????????” However, others weren't so kind. A comment read, “These kids never grow unless she’s hiring them.” In a similar vein, one speculated about Lilibet, “The girl only has half a face and is much smaller than the girl Harry was photographed with on the boat last week. And the boy's hair was brown last week, now it's red. Does anyone with half a brain buy this? ?”
These could be anyone's kids..the photo is heavily photoshopped. The girl only has half a face & is much smaller than the girl Harry was photographed with on the boat last week, & the boy's hair was brown last week, now it's red. Does anyone with half a brain buy this bull?? ?

As the comments poured in, a critic slammed, “You never see the kids' faces.” Another echoed, “Suuuure....don't show their faces. We believe you when you say that is Lilibet and Archie (eye rolls).” A netizen added, “'We want privacy...We want privacy.' Unless it's to make ????.” One also chimed, “What is adorable about it...just show their faces like any normal parent."
"We want privacy...We want privacy" Unless it's to make ????

This is not the first time Markle’s photos with her kids sparked mixed reactions. When the couple shared their 2024 Christmas card, royal fans noted the children's resemblance to their late grandmother, Princess Diana. They pointed out that Lilibet resembled a younger version of the late Spencer. A fan commented, “It is like Princess Diana said to the Windsors from heaven: ‘You may not want them, appreciate them or care for them, but they are mine, and mine they will be for the world to see the Spencer in them.'” Another quipped, “All that drama over how the children will look like just for them to end up taking 1000% of Spencer genes."
