Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from their royal duties nearly four years ago, yet public speculation about their decision continues. The couple has cited their desire to escape the intense media spotlight as one of the key reasons for their departure.
However, many have questioned this reasoning, as Harry and Meghan have remained in the public eye through high-profile interviews, book releases, and engagements that resemble official royal duties.
Despite their ongoing media presence, they have made concerted efforts to keep their children out of the public eye.
Harry’s complicated relationship with the media is well-documented. He has long believed that the relentless pursuit of his mother, Princess Diana, by paparazzi contributed to her tragic death.
When their son, Archie, was born, Harry was reluctant to share details about the birth. However, he ultimately followed royal tradition and presented Archie to the public outside Portland Hospital in London. The couple released a statement at the time, saying, “Today, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to share their first public moment as a family.”
Since then, only a handful of photos of Archie have been made public. The same has been true for their daughter, Lilibet, who was born in the United States.
That changed with the release of their six-part Netflix documentary, which offered an intimate glimpse into their family life at their Montecito, California, home—previously described as “Fort Knox” due to its strict security measures. The documentary included rare footage of Archie and Lilibet, giving fans a closer look at the young royals.
When Lili turned one, the Sussexes held a small picnic celebration at Frogmore Cottage, their former UK residence. Photos from the event were shared on social media.
Beyond that, public sightings of Archie and Lilibet have been rare—until recently. In December 2024, the couple released their family Christmas card, which featured six personal photos, including one that captured a glimpse of Archie and Lilibet.
One detail that stood out to many was Lilibet’s striking auburn hair.h
The festive card also included photos of the family’s three beloved dogs—Guy, Pula, and Momma Mia—as well as snapshots from their travels, including visits to Nigeria and Colombia.
The caption read: “On behalf of the office of Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Archewell Productions, and Archewell Foundation, we wish you a very Happy Holiday Season and a joyful New Year.”

My Girlfriend Left My Dog at the Shelter While I Was at Work, When I Went to Take Him Home, He Was Gone
Once upon a time, I met Frankie, a fluffy Great Pyrenees puppy with one eye and three paws, in a shelter. At that moment, I felt a deep connection with him. You see, life had been really tough for me after losing my parents in a car crash. I was so sad that I even tried to hurt myself twice. But when I saw Frankie, something inside me clicked. It was like we were meant to be together.
Frankie wasn’t just a pet to me; he became my best friend, my rock. His love filled the hole in my heart left by my parents. I was so grateful for him that I made sure he had everything he needed, even when I was at work. I set up cameras at home just to keep an eye on him.
He loved snacks, belly rubs, and cuddles, and I loved him more than anything in the world. I told my girlfriend, Leslie, all about Frankie and how much he meant to me. She seemed to understand until we talked about moving in together.
One day, while we were looking for a house, Leslie said something that shocked me. She said Frankie couldn’t come with us. I thought she was joking at first, but she wasn’t. We argued for hours, but I refused to leave Frankie behind. He had saved me, and I couldn’t abandon him.
Leslie left in anger, and we didn’t talk for days. It was hard without her, but I knew I had to stand by Frankie. He was more than just a dog; he was my lifeline.
I realized then that any future partner would have to accept Frankie as part of our family. He was a symbol of my strength and healing, and I couldn’t imagine my life without him.
Weeks passed, and Leslie finally reached out to me. She wanted to make things work, but she still didn’t want Frankie around. I missed her, but I couldn’t give up Frankie for anyone.
Eventually, Leslie left, and I was heartbroken. But I stayed true to myself and Frankie. Then, one day, I found Frankie was gone. Leslie had taken him to a shelter while I was out. I was furious and hurt.
But fate had other plans. I found Frankie with a woman named Emma and her daughter Olivia. Frankie had brought them together, just like he did for me. Emma understood how much Frankie meant to me, and we formed a bond over our shared love for him.
In the end, Emma and I fell in love, and we got married. Frankie was there with us, a symbol of the love and strength that brought us together. Through all the ups and downs, Frankie showed us the power of love and resilience.
Our story may have had a rocky start, but in the end, we found happiness and love in the most unexpected places. And it’s all thanks to Frankie, our furry guardian angel.
