Meghan Markle Shares First Clear Photo of Daughter Lilibet on Valentine’s Day

Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry shared a heartwarming Valentine’s Day photo on Instagram, offering the clearest glimpse yet of their daughter, Princess Lilibet Diana.

The photo, posted on February 14, 2026, shows Prince Harry, 41, holding four-year-old Lilibet, who is clutching a bunch of red balloons. Meghan Markle captioned the image with a red heart emoji, writing, “These two + Archie = my forever Valentines,” referencing their six-year-old son, Prince Archie.

A Rare Glimpse of Princess Lilibet

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have generally kept their children’s faces private on social media, often sharing photos taken from behind or with faces partially obscured. This new image provides a significantly clearer view of Lilibet, revealing her red hair styled long and loose, and dressed in a pink ballet tutu and tights.

This is the first time fans have seen Lilibet’s face since her first birthday, marked after a family trip to England for Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations. Lilibet’s name honors the late Queen, whose childhood nickname was “Lilibet.”

Royal Line of Succession

According to reports, Princess Lilibet is seventh in line to the British throne. USA Today reports that the couple often chooses to protect their children’s privacy.

Recent Family Appearances

The Valentine’s Day post follows a recent family photo shared during the holiday season, where the family of four was pictured on a bridge. Archie was seen hugging his father, even as Lilibet held hands with her mother. Page Six reported on the holiday photo, noting how much both children have grown.

Both Archie and Lilibet also appeared in Archewell Philanthropies’ year-end video, volunteering at a Los Angeles food bank in November.
