Meghan Markle is sharing a glimpse of her home life as a mom of two.
“A small break from work to soak in the weekend,” the Duchess of Sussex, 43, wrote over the beginning of a series of clips of her backyard via her Instagram Story on Sunday, February 23.
Markle walked to a lilypond in one clip, while in another she crouched down to pat a dog who trotted in front of her. In the next video, Markle showed a close-up shot of the flowers blooming from trees in her yard. “First blooms and blossoms of the year,” Markle wrote.
As Markle watered plants in the backyard, she handed the hose to a small child, who began spraying the yard. The tiny hands looked like they could be those of a 5-year-old. (Markle shares Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3, with her husband, Prince Harry.)
Markle was all smiles as she walked with the sun shining in the background in one video, while in another she picked fruit from her tree and squeezed a lemon into a drink.
The look into Markle’s life comes days after she announced the new name of her upcoming lifestyle brand, As Ever, which was previously titled American Riviera.
“Last year, I had thought, ‘American Riviera, that sounds like such a great name,’” Markle explained in an Instagram video. “It’s my neighborhood; it’s a nickname for Santa Barbara, but it limited me to things that were just manufactured and grown in this area.”
Markle — whose Netflix series With Love, Meghan debuts on March 4 — explained that she decided to switch the name when “Netflix came on, not just as my partner in the show, but as my partner in my business” — a change she called “huge.”

“So I thought about it, and I’ve been waiting for a moment to share a name that I had secured in 2022, and this is the moment, and it’s called As Ever,” she continued. “As Ever essentially means ‘as it’s always been,’ and if you’ve followed me since 2014 with The Tig [her former lifestyle blog], you know I’ve always loved cooking and crafting and gardening — this is what I do. And I haven’t been able to share it with you in the same way for the past few years, but now I can, so as things are starting to trickle out there, I wanted you to hear it from me first.”
In a photo shared via the As Ever website, Lilibet made a rare appearance alongside Markle. The mother-daughter duo were seen in matching white dresses while walking hand-in-hand barefoot across a green field.
