Princess Lilibet was born on June 4, 2021. She is a granddaughter of the King and lives in California with the Sussexes.
The Duchess of Sussex has shared a sweet family photograph of “our dream girl” Princess Lilibet to celebrate her daughter’s fifth birthday.
The new image, on Meghan’s Instagram account, shows the barefoot youngster, with her long red hair down and covering her face, being held in Harry’s arms as he looks at her adoringly.

Meghan is standing next to Harry with her arm on his shoulder, also smiling at the princess.
The duchess wrote in the post: “Our dream girl. Happy 5th birthday, Lili” followed by a white heart emoji.
She also shared another photo showing Lili standing barefoot on the grass in the sunshine, wearing a summer dress.
Lili is reaching out to touch the flowers of a blue-purple agapanthus – which is commonly known as Lily of the Nile or African Lily.
The King’s granddaughter was born on June 4, 2021, in the US and was named Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.
She became entitled to be a princess only when Charles acceded to the throne, owing to rules set out by King George V in 1917.
Harry and Meghan started using prince and princess for Archie and Lili after the princess’s christening in 2023, following correspondence with Charles about the matter.
