But
Almost a fortnight after sharing the 80-second video with her three million followers on Instagram, the ex-Suits actress defended her decision to post the personal footage.
She called on people to "tell the truth" about her and claimed that the video was a chance for her to share behind the scenes of her "authentic" life.
Speaking on Dragon's Den star
"Did you see my "Baby Momma" dance? That wasn't yesterday, that was four years ago.
"It's a really great reminder that with all the noise or whatever people do, there's still a whole life - a real, authentic, fun life - that's happening behind the scenes.
"I'm just grateful that now, being back on social as well, I have a place where I can share it on my own terms."
The footage - released to celebrate Lilibet's fourth birthday on June 3 - showed heavily pregnant Meghan making rowing movements and shimmying her shoulders beside the hospital bed.
Prince Harry also shuffles into view in a hoodie to the strains of then-viral pregnancy hit The Baby Momma Dance.
Podcast host Emma, founding partner of SKIMS and CEO of Good American, admitted she was shocked to see Prince Harry dancing in the video.
She joked: "We maybe watched it like 20 times yesterday.
"I was like, is that Prince Harry there with the fingers? I was like, okay, Meghan and Harry, let's go.
"But that's you, right? That's you in a way that we kind of haven't been able to see you before."
Emma Grede's Aspire episode with Meghan is set to air today.
She posted it on the social media platform alongside the caption: "Four years ago today, this also happened.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom split just days before Bezos wedding as actor prepares to 'party hard'
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have officially called it quits. The pair confirmed their split, following a TMZ report on June 24 that claimed the "Lord of the Rings" star was back on the market and set to appear solo at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's nuptials, which are officially underway in Venice, Italy. The news comes after they had allegedly been considering a big move together last year, and weathered critical comments from her ex-husband. Katy was unable to join the wedding celebrations due to her Lifetimes tour commitments. Before this revelation, there had been whispers and rumors about Orlando, 48, and Katy, 40, possibly headed for a split and experiencing a rocky period. Now, it has been confirmed that after a total of 10 years, and six engaged, the pair has truly called it quits. Read More Related Articles Donald Trump slammed as he makes homophobic attack on CNN's Anderson Cooper Read More Related Articles Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez forced to relocate Venice wedding after locals protest A confidant disclosed to Us Weekly, "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life." Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have officially split after 10 years (Image: Getty Images) Back in June, an insider informed Page Six that the duo's romance was effectively "over" and they planned to wait until her global tour wrapped up in December to make the breakup public. A source relayed to PEOPLE that the pop icon's latest album 143, which dropped in September, "caused some tension" between them, with Katy feeling "stressed" and "deeply frustrated" by the album's lukewarm reception, reports the Mirror US . Speculation has been rife as Katy has been spotted without her engagement ring in several Instagram posts. Recently, a source said Orlando was planning to head to the Bezos wedding alone, anyway. "He's the life of the party and he's gonna hit the dance floor hard!" they told TMZ . Another insider added, "90% of the people at the wedding are kinda boring, but 10% are really fun, including Orlando, Leo and Jeff (Bezos). It's gonna be a great party!" The ring, featuring a central ruby encircled by eight white diamonds in a floral design, was proudly displayed in a Valentine's Day post when she revealed Orlando's proposal. According to The Daily Mail, she is reportedly renting out their $30 million Montecito home to actor Chris Pratt. This isn't the first time the couple has parted ways. They initially dated in 2016, split in 2017, reconciled in 2018, and announced their engagement in 2019, moving in together that same year. In August 2020, they welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove. Prior to their relationship, Bloom was married to model Miranda Kerr, with whom he shares a son, Flynn, until 2013.. Perry was married to Russell Brand until 2012. The duo was last seen together at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March 2025. On Sunday, June 22, Orlando was seen in Australia with their four year old daughter while Katy was in town for two tour stops at the RAC Arena on June 22 and Monday, June 23. Although not photographed together, it seems Orlando and Daisy paid Katy a visit. For the latest local news and features on Irish America, visit our homepage here .
