The Sussex family has made headlines over the years through their appearances on various shows and series. The Duchess recently launched her Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan,” where she takes viewers on a tour of her domestic lifestyle, sharing cooking, gardening, and hosting tips with her famous guests.
However, the former Hollywood actress was never one to share her kids with the public. The recent posts quickly gained a wave of reactions from social media users.

Some users commented on the fact that the Sussexes never share the faces of their kids, in contrast to Prince Harry’s older brother, Prince William, and his wife, Catherine, Princess of Wales, who frequently share photos of their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
One user asked, “Why does she hide them? Kate and William and every other Royal shared photos of their kids…..why are these kids hidden?”
Another replied, “Just because Meghan and Harry want’s to have their Kids have privacy.”

Others backed Markle, with one saying, “Because those are her babies she’s not Kate, do you post every picture with your kids face everywhere like Kate? lol always trying to tell others how to post pictures of their kids.”
“William and Kate also have a lot more security to help keep their children safe,” another explained.

While another shared, “Oh man her genes lost.”
Another exclaimed, “Wow! Two more gingers for the world. Harry must have strong genes!”
Some even said the featured kids are not Markle’s but are used only for PR
