A post shared by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (@meghan)
Just a week ago, Meghan shared a short video of herself and Lilibet tending to the family bees together. The pair donned matching white beekeeper suits, which the child paired with rainbow boots, and they walked to a hive together.
Captioning the video – which played the 1969 song 'Sugar, Sugar' by The Archies in the background – Meghan wrote: 'Look at all of that fresh honeycomb! 'Harvesting honey with my little honey. (Like mother, like daughter; she's even wearing my gloves)."
Meghan recently spoke of her desire to raise a 'very strong" daughter and a confident son.
She said at the Time100 Summit in New York: 'I'm conscious of not just raising very strong and confident young woman, but also having a son. I think it's just as paramount of importance for young men to be raised with a confidence and sense of self that is going to empower the women around them too."
'It starts with whatever is going on internally. When I am able to not even just tune out whatever that noise is, [but] to really not give it any credence, that has become so much a part of my day-to-day life," she added.
The 43-year-old duchess also revealed how she deals with criticism of herself and her family, explaining she has 'made a very, very conscious effort to create boundaries for myself and for my mental health, for my well-being and certainly to role model that as well for my children".

It was celebratory, grandiose and very exhilarating. USC @presidentfolt you are a force of nature and it was amazing to get to know you better."

Hina Khan Reveals Why She Chose India For Cancer Treatment: ‘World-Class Facilities Here'
Last Updated: In June 2024, the actress revealed her cancer diagnosis through an emotional Instagram post, pledging to fight the disease with strength and resilience. Hina Khan recently took the internet by surprise when she announced her wedding to longtime partner Rocky Jaiswal with a series of dreamy pictures. The couple, who met on the sets of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, has been in a relationship for over 13 years. Their love story, which began on a professional set, has since evolved into a powerful bond, especially as they face Hina's recent diagnosis of Stage 3 breast cancer together. In June 2024, the actress revealed her cancer diagnosis through an emotional Instagram post, pledging to fight the disease with strength and resilience. Now, Hina has opened up about why she opted to undergo her cancer treatment in India rather than abroad. Speaking to ANI, she explained, 'We consulted some of the best doctors in the world, and they told us themselves that for cases like yours, everything is available in India. We also spoke to top doctors in India, and they themselves said that they are so well-connected globally that the best consultations in the world are accessible right here." She added, 'If you're not already aware, Tata Hospital is a major institution. It's affiliated with some of the best medical networks in the world, and it's one of the finest hospitals right here in India." Hina also highlighted how international-standard cancer treatment protocols are followed in India.

Reassuring her fans, Hina emphasised that India now offers top-tier cancer care. 'India now offers world-class facilities too. We have several independent, specialized labs that conduct proprietary, patented tests as per global standards—like liquid biopsy, genomics, tumor insights, and other advanced diagnostics," she noted.
