Harry’s day of independence! The Duke of Sussex and his daughter Princess Lilibet have been seen enjoying the Fourth of July close to their Montecito home.
Locals caught the father and daughter outing while they were watching the Montecito Association’s Village RoadShow on Tuesday, July 4, 2023. Harry can be seen in photos from the Daily Mail sporting a long-sleeve khaki shirt tucked into dark denim jeans and a matching army green baseball cap, while Lili, 2, looked darling in a sweet blue floral dress with a peter pan collar, knee-high white socks, and bright red shoes.
She had pigtails in her gorgeous strawberry blonde hair, which was obviously her go-to hairdo.
The roadshow, which featured “25 vintage and modern vehicles driven by community leaders and representatives from local organizations,” started at Montecito Union School and traveled down San Ysidro Road towards East Valley, according to the Montecito Journal.
Lili and her father observed the annual celebration in the area frequented by celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres as novelty cars, model T Fords, as well as neighborhood ambulances and fire trucks made their way through the streets.

One year ago, they decided to spend the day with family and friends in their hometown of Wyoming.
Last year, the Duchess of Sussex and her lifelong friend Heather Dorak celebrated the Fourth of July together. An onlooker captured the now-deleted images of the Sussexes watching the parade in Wyoming’s Jackson Hole valley and shared them on Facebook.
Heather founded Pilates Platinum, a pilates studio with locations all over Los Angeles, and she previously contributed to Meghan’s old lifestyle blog, The Tig.
Independence Day is observed on July 4 and honors the Declaration of Independence, which established the United States of America as a sovereign nation independent of Great Britain and King George and was ratified on that same day.

In previous years, Meghan has been seen spending the July 4th holiday with two of her closest university friends, Genevieve Hillis and Lindsay Roth, watching Serena Williams compete at Wimbledon 2019. She has also been seen watching Serena play the annual tennis tournament on July 4th 2016, just days before her second date with Harry at Soho House.

“This time, I was waiting there already. Smiling. proud of who I am. In a pretty blue sundress with white pinstripes, [Meghan] entered the room. She was radiant. I declared as I stood up, “I bear gifts.” a box in pink. I kept holding it out. She moved it. ‘No, no, don’t shake it,’ I said in response to the question, ‘What is this?’ Both of us laughed. She took the box apart. Cupcakes. specifically red, white, and blue cupcakes. In his autobiography Spare, Harry stated, “In celebration of Independence Day.
I mentioned earlier that Americans and Brits view Independence Day very differently, but whatever. She remarked that they were stunning.
