Even though Meghan Markle may not be on the best terms with the royal family, they still made sure to give the former actress a shout-out on her 40th birthday.

"Wishing The Duchess of Sussex a very Happy Birthday today!" The Royal Family's Twitter account, which represents Queen Elizabeth, captioned three photos of Meghan — one with the Queen, one with Prince Harry and one with Archie.

"Wishing a happy 40th birthday to The Duchess of Sussex!" Prince William and Kate Middleton captioned a photo of Meghan from her 2018 trip to New Zealand, Australia and the South Pacific.

Lastly, Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall wrote: "Wishing The Duchess of Sussex a very happy 40th birthday."

Royal expert Phil Dampier — who writes a weekly column for The Royal Observer — previously predicted that Harry's brood would make an effort to be kind to his wife.

"I think it is likely they will send a public message through gritted teeth," he said. "But whether a present will be sent privately, I don't know, such is the state of the relationship."

He continued, "I think Charles, the Queen, and William and Kate don't want to make the situation worse by having a public slanging match with them, but privately I think they are very upset by how things have turned out. They're not obliged to give her messages on her birthday, but they don't want to make the it worse."

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams was adamant that the family would "be in touch with Meghan. They will wish her [a] 'happy birthday.'"

"They normally do so for birthdays," he added. "But I wouldn't know if they'd send anything, and it's unlikely that we will find out. We wouldn't be told if anything special will be sent."
