'Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today, she came into our lives, and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all those sending love and celebrating her special day!' Markle captioned her post.
Fans wished Princess Lili a sweet, happy birthday on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex fan page.
'Happy birthday Princess Lili,' @lifeastrin commented.
'Happy birthday Lilibet, enjoy your day with mummy, daddy and big brother Archie,' @lindamickhale wrote.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their bundle of joy in 2021, before officially stepping down from their royal roles.
A month ago, Markle appeared on the 'The Jamie Kern Lima Show' and revealed a personal tradition that she had started for both her children.
The 43-year-old revealed that each night before bed, she writes emails to her children, creating a digital time capsule filled with memories, reflections, and expressions of love.
'One of our mom friends had said to me last year that she just created sort of secret email addresses for her kids that she'll give to them at some point in their life.
She would just send them, you know, random pictures, the pictures that you aren't going to put in a frame,' she shared.
Markle further added that she plans to gift these email accounts to her children when they are older, perhaps at 16 or 18, offering them a glimpse into their childhood experiences and how much she loves them.

Next Stay Close ✕ The weight of the season's events has profoundly impacted her. 'While I cannot say much right now, I do want to set the record straight about one thing: the graphic sexual photo surrounding the events in Episode 5. That photo was not me,' she asserted, creating a ripple of confusion and concern among fans and cast alike. Eady clarified that she had only recently seen the controversial image and expressed her shock upon realising it did not feature her. 'I was made aware of the photo being presented at the event, and based on what I was told, I assumed that it was somehow a photo of me - which is why I reacted in the way that I did,' she explained. This revelation not only sheds new light on her dramatic reaction but also inadvertently shifts some focus back to Moore, whose departure from the series has left a significant void. I'm disappointed to not be a part of the #RHOA 16 reunion taping today. Please know I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers. I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon. — KENYA MOORE (@KenyaMoore) June 5, 2025
