ANAHEIM, Calif. — Meghan Markle and Prince Harry marked their daughter Princess Lilibet’s fourth birthday with a family trip to Disneyland, creating cherished memories with their children, Prince Archie, 6, and Lilibet, who turned 4 on June 4, 2025.
On June 6, the Duchess of Sussex shared a heartfelt video on Instagram, capturing moments from their two-day visit to the California theme park. “Grateful for the magic @disneyland brought our family,” Meghan wrote, pairing the post with Peggy Lee’s uplifting song “It’s a Good Day.” The video showcased Lilibet, dressed in a vibrant dress and blue cap, leading her family through the park, according to a report by CNN on June 7, 2025.
The family enjoyed attractions like Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, where Meghan, wearing Minnie Mouse ears, smiled brightly before a thrilling log flume drop. Other highlights included rides on Dumbo the Flying Elephant, encounters with Star Wars characters, and a carousel ride featuring Archie and Lilibet side by side, as reported by Reuters on June 7, 2025. To protect their children’s privacy, Meghan overlaid hearts on their faces in the video, a practice she has consistently followed.
A special moment came with Lilibet’s birthday cake, themed after Disney’s The Little Mermaid, featuring Princess Ariel and Sebastian, a nod to the red-haired princess. The family also savored park treats like corn dogs and pickles, adding to the festive atmosphere, per the Associated Press on June 7, 2025.
Meghan has previously spoken about prioritizing her children’s privacy. In an August 2024 interview with CBS News, she said, “Our kids are young—3 and 5—and we’re focused on protecting them in today’s online world.” She also emphasized her commitment to positive change, a theme echoed in her recent endeavors.
In a March 2025 interview with PEOPLE, Meghan discussed her bond with Lilibet, highlighted by a photo on her website, Asever.com, showing them hand in hand. “Creating something meaningful in front of my daughter teaches her about being a working mom,” she said, underscoring the legacy she hopes to build for her children.
Disneyland’s 70th anniversary added extra sparkle to the family’s visit, with the park bustling with celebrations. The trip reflects the couple’s focus on creating joyful experiences for Archie and Lilibet, away from the public eye, as noted by major outlets covering the event.
