While the royal family gathered in Windsor this morning to attend Easter Sunday services, the holiday looked quite different in Montecito, California for Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
On Instagram, Meghan shared videos from their day, including feeding their chickens, gathering eggs, watching Archie and Lilibet race on an Easter egg hunt with their dogs following, Lilibet, in a pink dress, holding a large stuffed bunny toy while wearing bunny ears, and Archie working on decorating eggs. “Happy Easter!” she wrote in the caption . Watch the clips here:
In With Love, Meghan, Meghan spoke about collecting eggs from her chickens. “What’s really cool is with whatever’s going on in life, to be able to do something like this,” Meghan tells the camera about collecting eggs from her chickens. “It’s just fun. It’s fun for kids and for adults. But, if a morning starts like this [snaps], you think about your day differently.”
Harry and Meghan’s Netflix docuseries, Harry & Meghan, offered a sweet glimpse into their Easter traditions in California. In the sixth episode, cameras capture the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, along with Meghan’s mom Doria, as they set up an Easter egg hunt for Archie in April 2021.

On ShopMy last year, Meghan shared her Easter essentials, which included children’s clothing picks from J.Crew, Boden, and Petite Plume, among other brands, and Easter hosting items such as children’s toys and home goods. Earlier this week, she was spotted shopping for Easter gifts at a local Montecito shop. “She was there for a while, talking to the staff and making selections,” a source told People at the time.
In addition, last month, her brand As Ever launched a limited-edition “Bloom Box” in collaboration with High Camp Supply, a San Francisco-based luxury florist. The box was meant to ship in time for Easter.
