Earlier this year, after a hiatus of roughly five years, Meghan rejoined social media platform Instagram where she keeps posting pictures of her life with Harry and their kids in the US-- giving their fans and people a glimpse of their family.
More recently, Meghan Markle posted a video of her vacation with Prince Harry and their children- Archie and Lilibet-- enjoying some family time at Disneyland. What started as a lighthearted family vacation quietly turned into a touching tribute to Prince Harry's late mother, Princess Diana— one that warmed the hearts of fans around the world.
In a video shared on Meghan's social media profile, Harry and Meghan were seen laughing, playing, and riding attractions with their little ones. From cotton candy smiles to wide-eyed wonder on rides, the footage captured the magic of family and the simple joys of childhood. But for many viewers, one moment stood out—a scene that mirrored a treasured memory from Harry's past.
Back in August 1993, a newly divorced Princess Diana took her sons, Harry and William, to Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
It was a rare, carefree escape from the public eye following her separation from Prince Charles. Among the highlights of that trip was a ride on the park's iconic log flume— an adventure that left the young princes beaming and drenched, with Diana smiling beside them. Photos from that day captured more than just a fun ride— they froze in time a mother's pure love and the safe space she tried to give her boys amid royal chaos.

Fast forward to today, and Harry found himself in a similar moment—this time as the father, holding tight to his own children as they rode the very same water ride. Meghan's reel didn't announce the parallel, but longtime fans recognized the symbolism. The splash, the laughter, the wide smiles—it all echoed the joy Harry once shared with his mother. Whether intentional or not, the connection was poignant.
It's unclear whether this was Harry's first time revisiting the log flume since that day with Diana, but for many, it felt like a quiet way of bringing her spirit into the lives of his children.
A full-circle moment that spoke volumes without a single word.
According to PEOPLE magazine, back in 1993, Diana arranged for the water ride to be shut down so her boys could enjoy it privately, shielded from the crowds. While it's not known whether Harry had similar accommodations this time, the focus wasn't on exclusivity—it was on togetherness and creating memories.
Other snippets from the family's trip showed a Little Mermaid-themed cake for Princess Lilibet, snapshots of the couple braving Space Mountain, and Archie's wide-eyed excitement on various rides. Meghan captioned the video simply: 'Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy,' pairing the reel with Peggy Lee's cheerful classic, 'It's a Good Day.'
And indeed, it was. A day filled with laughter, love, and legacy—a reminder that while some people may no longer be physically present, their love continues to echo through the next generation.

WWE star Tiffany Stratton hilariously steals the show with wild first pitch at Mets Game
When WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton stepped onto the mound at Citi Field, she wasn't there to fight, but she sure delivered a performance. Just not the kind Mets fans expected. The pro wrestler was in Queens on Thursday to throw the ceremonial first pitch ahead of the Mets' series against the Washington Nationals. Dressed in a custom Mets City Connect jersey bearing her name, Stratton made her way to the field ready for action. But her throw? Let's just say it missed its mark… by a mile. Stratton opted for a casual toss rather than a full windup. But despite skipping the theatrics, the throw flew skyward-well over the catcher's head. Spectators quickly drew comparisons between her attempt and an exaggerated slow-pitch softball lob. Some even joked it resembled an "eephus pitch", a term baseball purists use for high, looping, unpredictable pitches that confuse batters, reported TMZ. Even so, she wasn't phased. Stratton later posted about the moment on Instagram, writing: 'Put me in Mets.' A post shared by TIFFANY STRATTON (@tiffanywwe) Until this week, former NFL star Taylor Lewan held the internet's attention with his own embarrassing first pitch, thrown during a recent Cardinals game. Stratton's throw, however, gave his misfire serious competition. While Lewan's ball veered off wildly to the left, Stratton's missile simply cleared everything in sight. It didn't bounce. It didn't reach the catcher. It just… kept going. Naturally, the side-by-side comparisons poured in online. ALSO READ: WWE RAW brings bad news for John Cena fans For all the playful ribbing, Stratton can take solace in this: she's far from owning the worst ceremonial pitch at Citi Field. That title, baseball fans insist, still belongs to rapper 50 Cent, whose infamous 2014 throw veered dramatically off course and into viral infamy. As the moment made the rounds on social media, many users reminded everyone: there's always next time. And if there's one thing WWE stars are known for, it's comebacks. Q1: Who is Tiffany Stratton?Tiffany Stratton is the current WWE Women's Champion known for her high-energy performances and glamorous wrestling persona. She has quickly become one of WWE's most talked-about stars. Q2: When and where did she throw the pitch?Stratton threw the ceremonial first pitch on Thursday at Citi Field in Flushing, Queens, during the Mets' final game of their series against the Washington Nationals. Q3: How did people react to her pitch?The pitch missed the catcher by a wide margin, leading to good-natured comparisons to Taylor Lewan's recent throw. Social media had a field day, but Stratton took it in stride and even asked to be put in the Mets line-up.
