Princess Lilibet turns three
Princess Lilibet turned three on Tuesday without much fanfare, but according to People, the family have already celebrated her birthday in an intimate ceremony over the weekend.
The magazine reported that Meghan and Harry held a small party for friends and family, at their home in Montecito, California.
However, the Sussexes did not mark their daughter's official birthday publicly, and they did the same thing for her older brother Prince Archie's birthday on May 6.
The royal family have also not released any official photographs of the young royals, with the last official image of Lilibet shared by her parents on her first birthday in June 2022.
"In recent years and certainly since King Charles III's reign began in September 2022, we have only seen public messages from the royal family's social media accounts for working members of the royal family," royal correspondent Danielle Stacey previously told HELLO!
"Such as the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and the Princess Royal."
The Sussexes have stopped sharing images of their children altogether, with fans only catching glimpses of them through grainy photos or snippets from the couple's Netflix docu-series Harry and Meghan.
According to The Sun, Prince Harry has been adamant about protecting their children's privacy, and the two will not be feature in their parent's upcoming series with Netflix, with Harry planning to release a show about polo and Meghan planning to release a lifestyle show.
"Harry and Meghan have not always agreed on how much they should expose their children to the media, but, in this case, Harry has clearly won," an insider told The Sun.
The couple have also mentioned their desires to protect their children's privacy in their docu-series.
"We've been really conscious of protecting our kids as best as we can," Harry said.
Meghan added: "Protecting our kids as best as we can and also understanding the role that they play in this really historical family."
