In celebration of her daughter’s fourth birthday, Meghan Markle, 43, gave her 3.3 million Instagram followers a behind-the-scenes look at her going into labor on Wednesday, June 4. Meghan Markle shared never-before-seen photos of Princess Lilibet and a video of herself dancing in the delivery room before her daughter’s birth.

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, kicked off her four-year-old daughter’s birthday with two heartfelt Instagram posts. Meghan Markle shared a rare, front-facing photo of Lilibet and herself cuddling on a boat captioned, “Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives – and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all those sending love and celebrating her special day!”  

Meghan Markle also posted two touching photos of Prince Harry and their daughter, writing, “The sweetest bond to watch unfold. Daddy’s little girl and favorite adventurer. Happy birthday Lili!”  

But the birthday shout-outs didn’t end there. The Duchess also released a video of a candid moment in Lilibet’s delivery room, captioned: “Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn’t work – there was only one thing left to do!” 

In the video, Meghan Markle is standing holding her bump until “The Baby Momma Dance” by Starrkeisha, a popular song on TikTok at the time, begins to play. In seconds, the Duchess drops it low, mouthing the words “Been pregnant for way too long.” 

Prince Harry joins in on the fun too, dancing while looking at the camera first and then at his pregnant wife before leaving the screen. Meghan Markle reels him back in, and he appears again with the hood of his sweatshirt on. The couple proceeds to put their moves on display, getting low and smiling while doing it. 

While we don’t know for certain if it was “The Baby Momma Dance” that helped send the Duchess into labor, it’s safe to say that the fun moment between the couple brought joy to the delivery room, and our Instagram feeds! 

What Meghan and Harry are up to now in Montecito

Today, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry live in Montecito, California with their two children Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4.  

On Mother’s Day this year, Meghan Markle posted a photo of her holding her kids, captioned “Happy Mother’s Day! Cheers to juggling it all with joy! And to these two gems – who still attempt to climb ‘mama mountain’, smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure… being your mom is the greatest privilege of my life.”

Along with being “mama mountain” to Archie and Lilibet, Meghan Markle also launched her own company, As Ever, and Netflix show “With Love, Meghan” this year. On her show, Meghan Markle talks about the importance of having her children in the kitchen, teaching them about her passion for cooking: “It’s so much a part of what I want them to learn and have these great formative memories of being there with me, and, ‘Oh, mama used to make this!”

Meghan certainly is “juggling it all with joy,” and maybe even some dance breaks!
