Meghan appeared to shrug off the backlash surrounding her decision to share a twerking video with Prince Harry
Meghan Markle has appeared to shrug off the negativity over her so-called “cringeworthy” twerking clip with a lively beach photograph. The Duchess of Sussex took to her Instagram account @As_Ever_Meghan to share her joy of ‘running into the weekend’, posting a playful image of herself frolicking in the ocean.
In the shot, the 43-year-old can be seen capering through the surf on a radiant beach, donning a billowy white sundress, while eagerly anticipating ‘all the good to come’.
Her post came not long after she uploaded a series of endearing snaps featuring her husband Prince Harry and their children – Archie, aged six, and four year old Lilibet – from a magical family outing to Disneyland.
Gifting her 3.7 million followers with the collage, the duchess recalled the two-day adventure as “pure joy” and gave a shout-out to the theme park for enabling such a memorable experience, reports the Mirror.
She painted a picture of their escapades that included exhilarating attractions and savoury snacks.
Among the intimate family shots were an adorable image of Archie and Lilibet encountering Elsa from Frozen and a heartwarming photo capturing a moment between Prince Harry and Lilibet on a ride.
The latest bout of social updates came on the heels of a somewhat controversial posting – a fun, yet somewhat awkward video of Meghan and Prince Harry dancing in what appeared to be an attempt to kickstart the labour for Lilibet’s birth.
The candid clip, lasting over a minute, also showcases Harry, who can be seen dancing in and out of the shot. Meghan beckons him into the frame as they dance together, with the Duke appearing towards the end, his grey hoodie’s hood up, continuing his dance routine.
Meghan, donned in a black maternity dress, dances while cradling her prominent bump. She lifts her skirt above her knees, raises her hands in the air, and does a low wiggle with her hands on her hips and legs.
The release of this video marks one of the more unconventional ways a Royal family member has celebrated a Royal birthday.
Earlier, the Duchess shared previously unseen intimate family photos of “Daddy’s little girl and favourite adventurer” Lili.
Meghan posted a monochrome photo of herself cuddling the princess, who was seated on her lap, both sporting windswept hair, seemingly on a boat.
Another picture showed Meghan tenderly holding newborn Lili, enjoying skin-to-skin contact with the newest member of her family in 2021.
In a subsequent post, she described Lili’s relationship with Harry as “the sweetest bond to watch unfold”.
The latest development comes not long after a Royal expert described a crucial meeting between Prince William, Prince Harry, Kate and Meghan as an event that “ripped the monarchy to pieces”.
The explosive encounter reportedly took place in June 2018 when the Prince and Princess of Wales sat down with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex amid rising tensions after Harry and Meghan’s wedding.
The situation escalated post-ceremony, as recounted in Prince Harry’s memoir ‘Spare’, who cited early turbulence involving his wife and his sister-in-law. He detailed a dispute concerning bridesmaid dresses prior to his wedding which purportedly left Meghan in tears, mentioning that Kate “grimaced” when Meghan used her lip gloss.
