Key detail that shows Meghan Markle isn’t relatable mum she makes out to be

Meghan Markle took to Instagram on Sunday to share a sweet photograph of herself and her children to mark Mother’s Day in the US. The Duchess of Sussex, 43, could be seen in the family snap holding both her children Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, three, on the terrace of the family’s home in Montecito.

While the duchess spoke in the post about being a mother and “juggling it all” – something many can relate to – there was one detail in the photograph that stood out as a stark reminder that the duchess may not be as relatable to other parents as she may seem. This is because her son Archie is wearing a pair of pyjamas made by designer brand La Ligne NY. The pyjamas were limited edition and cost £61, according to Hello! – a price not many parents would be willing or able to pay.

The duchess captioned her Instagram post: “Happy Mother’s Day! Cheers to juggling it all with joy! And to these two gems – who still attempt to climb “mama mountain”, smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure….being your mom is the greatest privilege of my life.

“I, too, ‘love you more than all the stars in all the sky, all the raindrops, and all the salt on all the French fries in all the world’.”
