Meghan Markle called out for being 'fake' as she marks UK Mother's Day with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet
The Duchess of Sussex celebrated the UK holiday by whipping up a sweet treatMeghan Markle has marked UK Mother’s Day with her children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
The UK celebrated the occasion on Sunday, March 30. Although she now lives in the US, where Mother’s Day is marked in May, the Duchess of Sussex still found time to celebrate the British holiday in California.
Meghan, 43, and husband Prince Harry, 40, lived in the UK before they quit their senior royal roles, so it make sense that she decided to mark the occasion. However, some critics online think differently.
