Meghan Markle is set to enjoy Mother's Day celebrations this weekend as the special day falls on Sunday, May 11, in the US.

Prince Harry is expected to ensure the day is memorable for Meghan as the Sussex family gathers for the occasion.


The couple will be celebrating with their two children, Archie, who just turned six, and Lilibet, who will be four next month.

Mother's Day represents a cherished family time for the Sussexes at their Montecito home.

Meghan has been open about her experiences as a mother since welcoming Archie in 2019, followed by Lilibet in June 2021.

The Duchess has embraced both American and British Mother's Day traditions in recent years.

Last year, she honoured UK Mothering Sunday by sharing an image of a lemon tart on social media.

"Our family tradition. Mothering Sunday in the UK," she captioned the photo, acknowledging her husband's British heritage.

Since returning to Instagram in January, Meghan has offered glimpses into their family life.

She shares occasional photographs of Archie and Lilibet, though always careful not to show their faces.

These posts include themed breakfasts with the children and strawberry picking in their garden.

The Sussex family recently celebrated Archie's sixth birthday with a special party.

Meghan shared a glimpse of the occasion on social media with a photo of Archie gazing at a sunset.

"Our son. Our sun. Happy 6th birthday to Archie! Thank you for all of the love, prayers, and warm wishes for our sweet boy. He's six! Where did the time go?" she wrote.
