Royal fans have noticed a heartbreaking detail in Meghan Markle’s video of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet celebrating Easter Sunday at their home in Montecito, California.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, posted a selection of clips to Instagram showing her children enjoying an Easter egg hunt, feeding chickens and decorating eggs in the grounds of their nine-bedroom mansion.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the rest of the Royal Family were miles away, spending the holiday together at the annual Easter Sunday service<\/a> in Windsor.<\/p>\n In one video, Archie, six, and Lilibet, four, can be seen running through the sprawling garden carrying wicker Easter baskets.<\/p>\n Another clip shows a barefoot Lilibet walking solo through the garden, wearing bunny ears and a matching pink sundress while carrying a large plush bunny.<\/p>\n A third video features Archie and Lilibet seated at a craft table while they decorated their eggs in colourful patterns.<\/p>\n Prince Harry, 41, appeared to be absent from the Easter festivities, but Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, 69, could be heard in the background of one clip cheering the children on.<\/p>\n However, some royal fans noticed a sad detail in Meghan’s “Happy Easter” post.<\/p>\n “What\u2019s really sad is they have no family to spend Easter with,” one person wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n “Nice to see them playing, but why are they always alone? A few friends would make this much happier. Kinda sad to watch,” added another.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, a third royal fan said: “I\u2019m sure the UK royal children had a carefree time yesterday afternoon but with all their cousins joining in the fun too.”<\/p>\n Other viewers were thrilled by the rare glimpse into the family’s Easter morning, with one gushing on social media that it was “lovely to see royal kids just being kids”.<\/p>\n “They are growing and having a normal life. Their parents made the right call taking them out of the royal drama,” another praised.<\/p>\n The Sussexes have been estranged from the Royal Family since they left the Firm and relocated to the United States in 2020.<\/a><\/p>\n Since then, tensions have escalated, and Harry is thought to have limited contact with his father King Charles, and no communication with his brother Prince William.<\/p>\n Archie was just a baby when the Sussexes left England and would have spent limited time with his cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.\u00a0<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Lilibet was born in California, and it is believed she has never met William and Kate’s children.<\/a><\/p>\n
