Egg Hunts & Fresh Air: Meghan Markle Shows Archie and Lilibet Enjoying a Nature-Filled Easter

Last year, the Duchess of Sussex shared a lighthearted video about the unexpected guests who crashed Easter at her house

Meghan Markle is sharing a glimpse of her Easter festivities with Prince Harry and their kids.

On Sunday, April 5, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex marked the holiday with their children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4. Meghan, 44, shared some of the highlights in a series of clips on Instagram.

One clip shows the children running alongside each other on the grass, with Easter baskets in hand, as they hunted for eggs. Lilibet wore a festive pair of bunny ears for the occasion. Another video captures the siblings holding their baskets — which were filled with treats and trinkets — as they walked along a stone pathway in a garden, with a dog in tow.

In yet another clip, Lilibet, wearing a pink floral-print dress, walked barefoot on the grass while holding two stuffed animals. Her long red hair shone in the sunlight as the sound of birds singing could be heard.

Archie showed off his artistic skills in another clip as he used a spinning device called “The Dinomazing Egg Decorator” to color stripes on an egg.

Meghan’s post also included clips of the family’s chickens getting an Easter treat of their own — some fresh lettuce.

The Duchess of Sussex captioned her post simply, “Happy Easter!”

Harry, 41, and Meghan relocated to the Duchess of Sussex’s home state of California after stepping back from their royal roles in the U.K. in 2020 and have since been raising their children largely out of the spotlight.

On Easter in April 2025, the Duchess of Sussex shared an Instagram video reacting to an unexpected visit from a mother duck and her ducklings.

“Wishing you a Happy Easter full of love….and surprises!” she wrote below the video, which appeared to have been filmed in the driveway of her home and was set to the song “Choo Choo Ch’Boogie” by Louis Jordan.

Across the pond, the royal family came together on Sunday to celebrate Easter with a traditional gathering at the Easter Matins Service at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.

While Meghan and Harry tied the knot in a royal wedding at St. George’s Chapel in May 2018, she never attended the royal family’s Easter church outing.

In 2018, Easter fell just a few weeks before the couple’s nuptials, and they opted not to attend the royal family’s church gathering, where Queen Elizabeth led family members, including Prince William, Kate Middleton, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie and more.

The following year, the Duchess of Sussex was also absent on Easter due to her pregnancy with Prince Archie, who was born on May 6, soon after the April 21 holiday.
