When Meghan Markle made her return to Instagram, royal fans anticipated a closer look into the Sussex family’s daily lives. On January 7, 2025, the Duchess of Sussex shared a heartfelt tribute to her late dog, Guy, offering an emotional and deeply personal moment.
The touching video, posted on her new Instagram account, @meghan, honored Guy’s memory while also providing a rare glimpse into life at home with Prince Harry and their children. The post radiated warmth and love, capturing the deep bonds within their family during this sentimental time.
Meghan captioned the video: “In 2015, I adopted a beagle from a dog rescue in Canada. He had been at a kill shelter in Kentucky and given a few days to live. I swooped him up….and fell in love.”
The Instagram montage also featured a rare and heartwarming sight of Meghan carrying her daughter, Princess Lilibet, through the family’s Montecito garden.
Adding to the deeply personal nature of the video, royal fans were delighted by the unexpected sound of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s voices. Lilibet’s gentle tone and Archie’s distinctive American accent were heard, offering a rare insight into their growing personalities and the close-knit nature of the family.
The video served as a touching reminder of how quickly Archie and Lilibet are growing up. It also marked the first time their voices had been publicly heard since they sang “Happy Birthday” to King Charles III in 2023.
The little prince’s voice was first revealed in “Harry & Meghan,” the Netflix docuseries released in December 2022. The series documented their journey from royal life to stepping back from their roles within the British monarchy.
Within the Instagram video, Meghan also offered a serene glimpse into her private world, strolling through the grounds of the couple’s seven-acre Montecito estate with her young daughter.
The 43-year-old Duchess appeared effortlessly elegant as she carried Lilibet on her hip, dressed in a relaxed white shirt, light-wash jeans, brown mules, and a straw sun hat. As she casually swung a basket, two of the family’s dogs, including Guy, playfully roamed nearby, adding to the intimate, family-focused atmosphere.

The scene showcased the couple’s beautifully maintained lawn, immaculate patio, and vibrant shrubbery, all framed by the estate’s breathtaking hilltop location. Towering trees lined the property, creating a tranquil and private sanctuary for the family.
This wasn’t the first time royal fans caught a glimpse of the Sussexes’ idyllic garden. Their Netflix docuseries, “Harry & Meghan,” had previously offered a peek into their home life, capturing touching moments such as Prince Archie playing football on the sprawling lawn, Meghan and Archie feeding their chickens, and Harry picking fresh oranges with his son.
Among the estate’s standout features are two palm trees in the garden, which hold a special meaning for the family. Meghan previously shared their significance in an August 2022 interview with The Cut:
“One of the first things my husband saw when we walked around the house was those two palm trees. See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, ‘My love, it’s us.’ And now every day when Archie goes by us, he says, ‘Hi, Momma. Hi, Papa.’”
