Prince Archie, age four, and Princess Lilibet, age two, are rarely shown in pictures released by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but Meghan allegedly hired one of her favorite photographers to take family portraits.
It coincides with Meghan’s return to Instagram last week, when she appeared in a commercial for American Riviera Orchard Montecito, her new business.
At her Montecito, California, home, the mother of two was observed baking, arranging flowers, and spinning around in a little black dress.

Richard Eden of The Daily Mail claims that the 42-year-old Duchess asked photographer Jake Rosenberg, who is based in New York, to take some solo portraits of Meghan, including her cooking and with Archie and Lilibet.
“Jake has lent his creativity to an array of distinguished brands including Chanel, Ferrari, Breitling, and Apple, among others,” according to a bio on the photographer’s website. Through his vivid photography, he has revealed the true selves of celebrities like Michael B. Jordan, David Beckham, Oprah Winfrey, Priyanka Chopra, Cindy Crawford, and Meghan Markle.”
The Duchess’ friend told the Mail that while the photo shoot did occur, it was unrelated to Meghan’s recent business venture, and the portraits will not be made public.

Rare images and videos of Archie and Lilibet were shared by Harry and Meghan for their Netflix documentary, which debuted in December 2022. Throughout the series, many endearing family moments were shown, such as Lilibet taking her first steps, Archie and Harry playing in the garden and walking the dogs, and Meghan baking with her kids.

The Duchess’ new brand has not yet been fully disclosed, but a trademark application suggests that it will be a lifestyle and homeware company. The list of products includes print and digital cookbooks, tableware (including napkins, tablecloths, and dinnerware and decanters), and a variety of foods, such as spreads, butters, and jams.
The name of the brand alludes to the place where Meghan currently resides, Montecito in Santa Barbara, which is known as the “American Riviera.”
A few weeks have passed since the official Sussex.com website for Harry and Meghan was unveiled, aiming to serve as a “one-stop-shop” for the couple and their endeavors. Now, the Duchess has returned to Instagram and her own website.
This week, the royal family’s website underwent an update that linked to Harry and Meghan’s joint biography, stating: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s official website, sussex.com,” has information about their current endeavors.

In addition, Meghan’s biography notes that “The Duchess wrote and edited a lifestyle website called The Tig in addition to her successful career as an actress.” After getting engaged to Prince Harry in 2017, the former Suits star closed The Tig.
