Meghan Markle offered the world a sweet glimpse into her family life this Valentine’s Day, sharing a photo that perfectly captured the resemblance between Prince Harry and their young daughter.
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, posted the image to Instagram on Saturday, Feb. 14, showing Harry, 41, standing in a field while holding 4-year-old Princess Lilibet. The most striking element? Their matching red hair, clearly visible in the outdoor photograph. Lilibet wore a pink ballet outfit and clutched a bouquet of red balloons, adding festive touches to the Valentine’s scene.
“These two + Archie = my forever Valentines ♥️,” Meghan wrote, acknowledging their 6-year-old son, Prince Archie, who wasn’t pictured in the shared photo.
The post came just one day after Meghan and Harry were spotted enjoying a pre-Valentine’s dinner on Friday, Feb. 13, at Funke, an upscale Beverly Hills restaurant helmed by chef Evan Funke. The couple opted for relaxed attire during the outing: Meghan in a brown jacket paired with black pants, and Harry in a black jacket and jeans.
Funke appears to be a favored spot for the family. Meghan previously dined there to celebrate her 44th birthday in August 2025, making it a location with personal significance for special occasions.
This Valentine’s Day celebration stands in contrast to 2025, when the couple spent the holiday apart due to Harry’s commitments. Prince Harry was in Canada for the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler. He had kicked off the event with Meghan by his side before she returned home to care for their children several days later.
During that separation, Meghan honored her husband with a loving Instagram post featuring a black-and-white photo of them kissing. “Back home taking care of our babies, and missing my Valentine, as he continues on at the Invictus Games, changing lives and reminding all of us of the power of healing and resilience through these incredible veterans and their families. Beyond proud of my husband and what he’s created,” she wrote.
She added a more personal note: “My love, I will eat burgers & fries and fish & chips with you forever. Thank you for you.”
Meghan also shared videos on social media last Valentine’s Day showing Archie and Lilibet marking the occasion with a Valentine’s Day-themed breakfast, giving followers rare glimpses of their children.
The couple’s love story began in summer 2016 when they connected through a mutual friend. They immediately began dating after their first meeting, launching a relationship that would eventually lead to their 2018 wedding and their current life in California with their two children.
The Valentine’s Day 2026 post continues Meghan’s pattern of selectively sharing family moments on social media, offering controlled glimpses into their private life while maintaining boundaries around their children’s privacy. The photo of Lilibet represents a rare public look at the young princess, whose red hair and resemblance to her father were on full display.
What to watch next:
- Whether Meghan continues sharing family photos on special occasions
- Public and media response to the rare image of Princess Lilibet
- Any upcoming projects or appearances by Prince Harry and Meghan
