The Duchess of Sussex<\/a> posted a photograph cuddling her daughter while perched on a rock at a seaside, along with a caption that reads: “For the woman she will be one day…<\/p>\n

“Happy International Women’s Day,” and credits the picture to “Papa Sussex”.<\/p>\n

Meghan’s International Women’s Day<\/a> post last year also featured the young princess. In the Instagram<\/a> carousel, she posted a black and white photograph of herself as a child with her mum, a selfie of the pair during her adult years, a photograph of Harry and kissing and hugging their daughter, and a final one of Meghan and Harry on a beach.<\/p>\n

With a slightly longer caption, she wrote: “Happy International Women’s Day!<\/p>\n

“Celebrating the strong women around us & the girls with dreams who will become women with vision. Also thanking those who uplift us every day.”<\/p>\n

Meghan started sharing candid images of her children, Prince Archie<\/a> and Princess Lilibet, on her Instagram account a few months after her return to the social media platform.<\/p>\n

This year’s sweet International Women’s Day post comes after Meghan shared another photo of the Princess on Valentine’s Day, which was the first time you could clearly see Lilibet’s face from the side.<\/p>\n

The photograph shows the Duke of Sussex holding their daughter, who is holding a bunch of red balloons, alongside a caption which reads: “These two + Archie = my forever Valentines”.<\/p>\n

Despite Meghan’s official Instagram having several photos of both Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, the recent Valentine’s post sparked backlash from the public.<\/p>\n

One person wrote online: “You have Prince Harry<\/a> breaking down in sobs with parents who actually lost kids to cyberbullying and preach about the dangers of kids and social media.<\/p>\n
