Meghan Markle posts heartwarming videos of Lilibet and Archie splashing in the pool and feeding animals at the zoo

Meghan Markle has shared heartwarming footage of her children soaking up the sunshine in a swimming pool and feeding rhinos at the zoo.

The sweet clips, uploaded to Instagram, show four-year-old Lilibet causing a splash in the water – accompanied by what appears to be Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland.

In one adorable video the back of six-year-old Archie’s red head is visible as he carefully feeds leaves to a critically endangered black rhino.

Fans of the Duchess of Sussex were also treated to a short clip of Meghan and Harry passionately dancing together, bare foot, in a green field.

Prince Harry was dressed casually in tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt while Meghan tightly gripped his shoulders in a white top and cream mini-shorts.

The clips showcased some of the together time Meghan had been spending with her children, featuring chunky pastel chalk pieces and colourful scribblings on paper.

Accompanied by the music ‘Carefree Days’, a shopping list in one video was surrounded by groceries and covered in small drawings – with the final page reading ‘Yay! You did it!’ in capital letters.

A final Instagram story saw Meghan don a pair of sunglasses as she fed huge green leaves of lettuce to a giraffe at The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens in Palm Desert, California.

It follows the revelation earlier this month that Harry and Meghan are already planning a public role for their two children – to the shock of the Prince’s old friends and family members.

Before Christmas there was evidence of the pair’s plans when they announced changes to their charitable foundation.

A statement read: ‘After five beautiful years, the Archewell Foundation is becoming Archewell Philanthropies.

‘This charitable entity allows the couple and their children to expand upon their global philanthropic endeavours as a family.’

An old friend of Harry’s told the Daily Mail: ‘I am genuinely confused.

‘Harry and Meghan were always so insistent that their children would be able to make their own way in life without the pressure of expectations or titles.

‘I can’t believe Harry is behind this. It must be Meghan’s influence.’

It was not just the Archewell statement that led fans to believe the Sussexes wanted to give their children a higher public profile.

On the same day that the statement was issued, Meghan posted a family photograph on social media alongside a Christmas message -featuring the clearest image yet of their children.

Archie was seen hugging his father while Meghan was bending down and holding hands with Lilibet as they stood in a sun-dappled forest on a small, wooden bridge.
