Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie made a brief cameo on Duchess Meghan’s Instagram Story this past weekend.
With Meghan returning from her glamorous trip to New York City and Prince Harry coming home after a few days in London, the Sussexes reunited for a special Saturday morning breakfast at their Montecito mansion with their kids.
Meghan first shared a video of the delectable breakfast spread, with one of her kids spinning the array of goods on a wooden tray. The spread included a plate of fresh pancakes and bacon, fried eggs, and a platter of cut-up oranges, strawberries, melon, and dragonfruit.
In another clip, three-year-old Lili , dressed in a red floral pajama top, was filmed cutting a frosted pastry loaf and offering a slice to Harry, who replied with a giggle and a polite “Thank you.” Lili’s blazing red curls could briefly be seen in the corner. Off to the side was another pair of small hands, presumably belonging to five-year-old Archie. “A special gift ‘papa brought back from Ukraine,’” Meghan wrote over the video.
After traveling to London to participate in court hearings regarding his ongoing appeal for security in the U.K., Harry stopped by the Ukrainian city of Lviv to meet with wounded military personnel and civilians.
Yulia Svyrydenko, Ukraine’s minister of economy, later reposted the clips on her X account. “The whole team is just crying, because a pastry made by grandmothers from Sumy region made from flour from demined fields is now on the table of Meghan Markle, Prince Harry and their family. And next to it is a pysanka from Oksana Tsybukh in memory of Ira,” Svyrydenko wrote.
Alongside a photo of the bakers proudly holding up their pastries, Svyrydenko wrote a message of thanks to the Duke of Sussex. “I would like to express my sincere gratitude for everything that your family is doing for Ukraine, and for helping us draw the world's attention to humanitarian demining in Ukraine,” she said. “Demining will allow millions of displaced Ukrainians to return home, and allow thousands of children to go to school without fear. This means so very much to all of us!”
She added, “A remarkable group of women who live in the border region of Sumy, an area affected by landmines, have prepared this Easter bread for you and your family. Today, they, along with all of us, are deeply moved, knowing that this symbolic offering - Easter bread, made from flour harvested from demined fields - will be on your table.Thank you, from all Ukrainians, for your kindness and good-heartedness!”
Meghan later reposted Svyrydenko’s message and photos to her Instagram Story.
