Meghan Markle shares rare video of Archie and Lilibet enjoying new life in English countryside
The Duchess of Sussex has shared a rare glimpse into her family’s new life in England, capturing an unexpected moment during a countryside outing.
Meghan Markle has given fans another glimpse into her family’s new life in England, sharing an adorable video of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet exploring the countryside.
The Duchess of Sussex, 45, posted a 20-second clip to Instagram on Sunday, showing her two children enjoying a scooter ride along a quiet country lane.
Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, were seen wearing blue and pink backpacks as they made their way down the path, accompanied by the family’s black labrador, Pula.

The children stopped to watch the animals race past, while Pula bounded along the path towards them.
Meghan set the sweet family moment to My Girl by The Temptations.
The video is the latest glimpse into the Sussex family’s life in the English countryside after Meghan and Prince Harry reportedly relocated to the Cotswolds in September.
The move marked a major change for the couple, who stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and moved to the United States.
The family has reportedly received a warm welcome from neighbours, while Archie and Lilibet have settled into a new school.
The couple are understood to be keeping their mansion in Montecito, California, as well as their holiday home in Portugal.
Meghan has been sharing more of her children’s adventures in recent weeks, including a video last month showing Archie and Lilibet splashing in puddles, riding bikes and enjoying time outdoors.
Another family montage showed the children warming their feet beside an open fire and taking a boat ride on a lake.
The Duke and Duchess are now preparing for their first joint public appearance since their reported return to Britain.
The couple are expected to visit three charities in Nottingham on Thursday, including the Community Recording Studio, where Meghan is reportedly set to take part in an acting workshop.
They will also visit the Himmah food bank alongside the Hubb Community Kitchen and Epic Partners, a charity supporting children through sport and mentoring.
The Duchess has also been busy with her lifestyle brand, As Ever, which announced on Sunday that all net profits from its teas and jams would be donated to the Malala Fund for International Day of the Girl.
The announcement followed Meghan’s meeting with Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai at London’s Claridge’s hotel last week.
The pair were photographed embracing outside the luxury hotel after enjoying afternoon tea together.
It comes as questions remain over Harry’s relationship with his father, King Charles.
The pair have reportedly remained in phone contact, although it is understood they have not met face-to-face since the Sussexes returned to Britain.
The family’s move has also renewed attention on their security arrangements, following Harry’s unsuccessful legal challenge over police protection during visits to the UK.
The committee responsible for royal and VIP security is reportedly set to reconsider the family’s protection arrangements now that they are living in Britain.
