Prince Harry and Duchess, Meghan Markle, supposedly had a blast on their daughter, Princess Lilibet, second birthday on the 4 of June 2023. Although no updates have come so far, experts say that this year’s birthday would be different from last year’s garden picnic at Frogmore Cottage in the UK. It was speculated that the couple had a warm celebration amidst close ones.

Word has it, they invited friends and their families over to their homes in the US for a BBQ party.

While the two-year-old continues to get showered with a bounty full of toys, her family had something very special for the Princess. A source told the New Idea that this year the princess might get a petting zoo. This came after her family noticed her growing fondness for small animals. Meanwhile, it was back in a 2015 interview that Meghan Markle had her own something that she plans to pass on to her daughter one day. Even long before she met Prince Harry.

Sources reveal, “No doubt she’ll be getting a truckload of presents.” Meghan has fallen in love with Cartier’s music boxes. Meanwhile, “Harry is letting Meghan take charge of most of the princess’ gifts.” However, the duke would love to add more British books to the nursery that he used to love as a kid. For instance, the Paddington Bear and Frog and Toad series.

What do we know of Princess Lilibet?

The Sussexes welcomed their first daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, on June 4, 2021, after the couple’s first child, son Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, on May 9, 2019. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex chose their daughter’s name for its family connection and significance. Lilibet is the nickname of her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. She was often called that by family members and in her private letters. Her middle name, Diana, is a precious memorandum of Prince Harry’s mother, Diana, the Princess of Wales.

Earlier this year, Lilibet was christened in the Episcopal Church, a province in the Anglican Communion. The private ceremony took place at her parent’s home on 3 March 2023 by John H. Taylor, the Bishop of Los Angeles. Upon the accession of King Charles III, following the death of the children’s grandmother in September 2022, Lilibet received the title of Princess, while her brother Archie, five, became a Prince.
