Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been celebrating a very special occasion as their daughter Princess Lilibet turned three last month on Tuesday, 4 June. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are also parents to five year old son Prince Archie, reportedly threw an intimate pre-birthday bash for their little one at their stunning Montecito home.
According to People magazine, the family kicked off celebrations early and enjoyed a pre-birthday bash the weekend prior to the big day surrounded by close friends and family as well as some of Lilibet’s pals.
Prince Harry and Meghan have called California their home since moving to the US in 2020 with their son Archie, who was a year old at the time. Lilibet however was born in the US, with her doting parents revealing that they were “blessed” at her arrival.

A message from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on their Archewell website read: “On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili.
“She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe. Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family.”
Meanwhile, speaking to OK!, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond explained a few possibilities regarding how Lilibet could have spent her day.

“Three-year-old birthday parties are all about bouncy castles and little girls in princess dresses,” she said. “Of course Lilibet is already a princess, but I’m sure her mum will still want to dress her up for her big day. After all, that’s half the fun of having a little girl.
“If Lilibet is anything like my three-year-old granddaughter, now is the time that she will be pining for a pet to cuddle…and a make up bag full of child friendly (and washable) lipsticks and nail varnish. So I hope Harry is ready for guinea pig cage cleaning duties!”

As for what the day itself, Jennie added: “I expect her birthday will be full of sunshine, squabbles with her brother, fun games with her toddler friends and some delicious home cooking from her mum.
“It will no doubt be in all American affair at their Montecito mansion and I would expect to see a sprinkling of celebrities and a laid-back party, which hopefully will include some other toddlers.
“It would be nice to think the day might include a video call to Lilibet’s grandfather, King Charles and hopefully some sort of gift has been arranged and will be delivered to Montecito for her birthday.”
