Here’s a little trip down memory lane: On January 8, Duchess Kate celebrated her 38th birthday. To mark the occasion, Kensington Palace unveiled a stunning new portrait of the beloved royal. And guess what? Even amid the whirlwind of recent drama, Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan took the time to wish her a happy birthday! In a sweet gesture, they posted a comment on the photo via their joint Instagram account, Sussex Royal. Now, here’s the kicker—they did this just one day after dropping a major bombshell about stepping away from their royal duties. Talk about timing!
Let’s break it down: Harry, 34, and Meghan, 38, left everyone speechless when they announced their decision to “step back” from their roles as senior members of the Royal Family. Their statement was heartfelt, explaining that they plan to become financially independent while still supporting Her Majesty The Queen. “It’s with your encouragement,” they wrote, “that we feel ready to make this adjustment.” In a bold move, they also revealed their intention to split their time between the U.K. and North America, balancing tradition with a fresh start. This decision, they explained, will allow them to focus on their charitable work and provide a unique upbringing for their son, Archie.
