Meghan Markle shares rare glimpse into UK life as fans spot unexpected detail about Archie
The Duke and Duchess have shared their first social media post since returning to the UK following a six-year absence.
Meghan Markle took to Instagram on Sunday (13 Sept), where she shared a video compilation showing her, Harry, their two children - Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet - and their dogs enjoying a walk in the Great British countryside.
Royal officials confirmed last month that the couple would be relocating to the Prince's home country later this summer, ahead of seven-year-old Archie and Lilibet, five, starting school in England in the autumn.
Harry and Meghan fled the UK in 2020 after resigning from their official duties, citing alleged mistreatment from several senior royals and abuse from the British tabloid press. They set up shop in the US and welcomed their daughter, Lilibet, in Montecito, California, the following year.

While living in the States, the duo also took on several both joint and separate professional roles, including charity work for Harry and a hit Netflix lifestyle series for Meghan.
The pair landed in the UK earlier this month before travelling to a private residence believed to be in the Cotswolds, where they appeared to take a walk this weekend as a family.
In 45-year-old Meghan's latest clip, she and Harry are seen walking hand-in-hand in the sunshine, before the video transitions to a segment showing what appears to be their daughter's feet walking by the fire.
In another video, the wellie-clad youngster splashes through a puddle.
A four-section of the upload - set to Wham!'s 'Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go' - shows Lilibet cycling along a country path while her big brother runs alongside her, telling her, 'Go, go!'.
Fans immediately noticed the child appeared to have obtained his father's sweet British accent, despite Archie having lived in America for the better half of a decade.
"Thank god our queen is still posting!!!" one X user gushed. "Ahhhh I know they are going to be upset about this for some odd reason but hear little Archie’s cute voiceeee!!!"
The US-based user joked, however: "I hope he keeps his American accent tbh and the same for Lilibet!"
A third added: "So sweet!"
A Reddit user also double-checked: "Archie has an accent after a few days???"
In another section of the compilation, Harry, 41, is seen enjoying a fishing trip with his children, with the trio soaking up some rare British sun.
Two heart emojis - one red and one blue - remain at the top of Meghan's video throughout.
In the days after she and Harry returned to the UK, King Charles III issued formal guidance through the Lord Chamberlain confirming that they'd remain non-working members of the Royal Family.
The letter was sent to senior figures across government and the military, with the Palace claiming it was intended 'to help avoid doubt or confusion'.
A representative for Harry and Meghan - who are waiting to hear whether they will receive taxpayer-funded security - were reportedly 'surprised' by the King's move.
