It was to be expected. Once the video featuring Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s kids was shared online, the speculation about the kids would quadruple. And though the video wasn’t up for that long, and didn’t really show their faces as clearly, just in passing in the background, there is indeed way more interest today about them and their future—inside or outside the royal family.
According to RadarOnline.com the post even has media analysts questioning whether Markle is planning for her children’s future. Markle posted a video of her family enjoying an early Halloween trip to Lane Farms in Santa Barbara before returning home to carve pumpkins. In the video of Prince Harry carving a pumpkin, the kids can be seen playing.

Now the outlet reports from a source, “Meghan understands the level of fascination with her family online. Showing Archie and Lili more openly isn’t just about sharing sweet moments – it’s a deliberate move to guide how the public sees them. There’s a clear strategy behind it.”
This is the first time the public has gotten a clear glimpse of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in years, which is why some people don’t believe it was a mistake.
A Los Angeles-based entertainment executive said, “The Sussexes have built a global brand around family, wellness, and authenticity. Meghan understands that social media is the future of that brand – and if she’s relaunching herself online, her children will inevitably be part of the story. She is clearly eyeing them as future influencers with the power to earn millions of dollars from brand posts.” And the kids have the potential to be “money-spinning influencers” indeed.
Both Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been open about what they see as the dangers of social media in young people, with Harry saying that the digital world has “fundamentally changed how we experience reality,” and Markle explaining, “We’ve been really conscious about protecting our kids as best we can and understanding the role they play in this really historical family.”
Another source defended the decision to show the kids online. “Meghan’s not using her kids for attention – she’s taking charge of how they’re seen. If the media is going to pursue her family regardless, she’d prefer to control the narrative herself.”
Not that long ago, after Markle posted a photo of her kids on the set of her Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, royal expert Hugo Vickers told The Sun that the glimpse of their children might not sit well with Harry. “He [Prince Harry] ought to be extremely annoyed. Obviously, I don’t know what he thinks, but I think he does what he’s told probably,” he said. “You know, what worries me much more, to be quite honest, is what the children themselves are going to think when they get a little bit older and they realise how they’ve been exploited.”
Right now, the kids are too young to decide for themselves what they want to do in the future, and a quick and blurry video with their faces in the background isn’t nearly enough to make any judgments on Prince Harry or Meghan Markle.
