Meghan Markle offered fans a rare glimpse of her and Prince Harry’s daughter Lilibet.

Taking to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, August 26, Markle, 44, shared a clip of her 4-year-old walking over to kiss a framed black-and-white photograph of her mom holding the family’s pet beagle.

“Morning surprise from my husband,” Markle captioned the sweet moment, which was filmed inside their family kitchen. The video showed Lilibet dressed in pale pink pajamas as she planted her kiss on the frame before walking out of sight and around a kitchen island bench.

The Instagram Story was set to the track “My Guy” by Mary Wells and also captured a large white ribbon hanging around the frame, which was seemingly wrapped by Harry, 40.

The candid peek inside Meghan’s home life followed the reveal of never-before-seen photos from her and Harry’s May 2018 wedding. During the sixth episode of season 2 of With Love, Meghan, released by Netflix on Tuesday, snaps from the couple’s reception in Windsor Castle were shown.

In one snap, Harry was seen holding his wife’s hand as the pair entered the venue, while other photos revealed tables labeled with spices including “cilantro” and “coriander” rather than numbers.

Another photo showed the reception’s afterparty snack: fried chicken from the couple’s chef, Clare Smyth.

Two further snaps captured the reception’s fireworks display as well as the pair dancing.

The arrival of season 2 of With Love, Meghan, also shone a light on how she struggles to be apart from her children. (Meghan shares Lilibet and son Archie, 6, with Harry.)

In episode 3, Markle was seen agreeing with Queer Eye star Tan France when he claimed he never wanted his own children “to leave” home. (Tan, 42, shares sons Ismail, 4, and Isaac, 2, with husband Rob France.)

“I’ll miss them so much. You want to be the parent who’s like, ‘Yes, go do it. Go do your thing. Go live that life,’” Meghan said. “’But I’m going to miss you so much.’”

She also said during the episode that the longest she’s been away from her children “was almost three weeks,” noting that she “was … not well.”
