Today marks Meghan Markle‘s 39th birthday, and senior members of the royal family, including the Queen, are all wishing her a happy birthday.
To mark the occasion, the Royal Family Instagram account, which typically represents the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, shared a picture of Meghan and the Queen at a joint engagement in Chester in 2018.
At the time, the visit was seen as a mark of support from the Queen for Meghan. The Queen took the Duchess of Sussex on a joint engagement much sooner after her marriage than she did for the Duchess of Cambridge.
The photo is captioned:
“🎂🎈Wishing The Duchess of Sussex a very happy birthday!”
On the Kensington Royal account, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge shared a picture of Meghan at a school visit and wished her a happy birthday.
“Wishing a very happy birthday to The Duchess of Sussex today! 🎂🎈”
Prince Charles and Camilla, Meghan’s in-laws, also shared a picture of Meghan to wish her happy birthday on their Clarence house Instagram account.
“Happy Birthday to The Duchess of Sussex! 🎈”
While Harry and Meghan have agreed to stop using their HRH stylings, they are still the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
The well-wishes came as a new tell-all biography Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family, reveals that Prince Harry often felt like a third wheel — and even like “a gooseberry” — when he carried out official engagements alongside his brother and sister-in-law.
