On Thursday, July 23, 2026, the Duchess of Sussex shared a series of new photos on Instagram. “Summer holiday,” the Duchess captioned the carousel of photos, adding a sun emoji. She also included a photo from their visit to Althorp. One image appears to show Prince Harry, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet at Althorp, Princess Diana’s childhood home in the UK.

      Last time I checked Prince Harry was promoting the Invictus Games One Year To Go. I know it bothers people and the family when his wife shows up to support him. I see nothing wrong with a few photos that I believe are for people that support them to see what they're up to.

      Yeah Meghan and Harry are getting papped every week and the children are on the cover of magazines. Wait they're not. They released a few photos of their summer vacation.

      If Meghan isn't seen then people are asking where is she and making horrible accusations and when the children weren't seen horrible things were said. Just say you don't like seeing happy relaxed photos of this family enjoying their life

      No a beautiful family on a lovely vacation. From a European beach vacation, to manicured Althorp, and back to the beautiful beaches of Santa Barbara and poolside of their beautiful mansion in Montecito.

      Yes 10:00 there was no obligation to publish private photos to the whole world in the way Meghan does. I think she can’t help but want fame. They are lovely photos but would be better kept totally private; the constant pull and push of their relationship with the media and publicity is tricky to understand.

      It’s great to see eh 11:53? I love that we see them without shoes in many photos. Really don’t understand the parents (at least as they are portrayed in the media), but it seems to me they’re giving their kids a great childhood nevertheless. Nothing speaks of liberty like a barefoot summer.

      I'm not going to tell anyone what to do with their children but I'm certainly not going to tell people what to post with deranged fans threatening them at every turn or add to the vitriol. This family has an unprecedented number of threats according to people who worked for the government and I've read threats on a sites

      Not posting them at all is a very good idea. But I also see the sense of not putting any of our faces on the internet including kids because these days such photos can be stored by others and manipulated and used in the wrong ways.

      I’m puzzled that you haven’t adapted to this very common practice among well known parents around the globe. If a child’s face is regularly seen online, terrible AI adaptations can be made to the rest of them by criminal abusers and shared in nefarious places. Will and Kate do not have this option based on their national positions. But they probably wish they did. This is a protective measure chosen by parents who have this option. The internet is not kind. Many photos of celebrities with their children have their children’s faces blocked by emojis, too.

      You do not need to look at them, you do not need to comment. Their children, their choices - very many people choose not to show their children’s faces on social media for very good reason, but do choose to share holiday snaps - the York sisters spring to mind as an example. We see their children often, but not their faces. LRB

    Not sure what to think of this couple and the stresses they seem to bring upon themselves (eg by tell-all book and Oprah interview denigrating Harry’s family but then wanting closeness), but I love to see their kids barefoot. I grew up that way and it was the best of freedoms. As for Meghan lounging by a pool with a lot of gold on her wrist, each to her own, but that never makes sense to me. I wish them all the best and a much quieter life completely out of the public eye, resolving their stresses and rebuilding both families.

      No one asks to be endlessly pilloried in the press. Setting the record straight after the press repeats lies legally isn't asking for it. Funny the royal family never asks for it although they have tell all books and columnists insist legally they were asked to concentrate on the Sussexes. I know people hate to see them in the public eye living life well but don't hold your breath. No do hold your breath. I think they'll continue to work to pay bills and continue their charity efforts. It's funny how some people hate to see them out because according to them they're failing. They have a family and it's pictured.

      Well ignoring all of the tabloid tales and private information that came repeatedly. Denigrating the family? Was it true? Most of the family has books written with their participation not just Harry. And his father did an interview that wasn't kind to his parents. Healthy families are worth rebuilding but bringing your children into an incredibly unhealthy one isn't a good idea. I don't wish to see it rebuilt. I wish for the attacks to stop.l, it they won't. So Harry and Meghan should just live their life and provide for their family's peace, protection, and future.

      Accusing people of bringing abuse and lies on themselves is beyond gross. Opinions like yours are the worst. No family should have to deal with the dysfunction those families exhibit. Keeping your children away from that is important. I was a bit surprised, but it was just a quick visit. I'm sure we'll hear about from palace sources by fall, but that won't be the royal family's fault. No of course not.

      What a strange comment - Harry is front and centre of Invictus he is not going to be out of the public eye. I never take my gold jewellery off - why would I , it doesn’t tarnish and on holiday you are safer wearing it than sticking it in a hotel safe. The book seemed to bring a lot of stress on people like you, but not on H&M . If you don’t like them, don’t follow them, don’t click on stories about them. This constant criticism is exhausting and unnecessary and unkind. LRB

    Quindi non erano ospiti di Eugenie di York, ma hanno una casa di loro proprietà. Bene, se in UK il problema era dove andare con la famiglia Harry poteva acquistare almeno un cottage lì…questa è la vera libertà e non piagnucolare per il palazzo reale.

    Pictures of a happy family enjoying their life. Upsetting to many it seems. I say go focus on your own life. It's sad. Meghan is nominated for an Emmy so she'll be out soon and the royal family will be out with tons of engagements because any press about this woman has to be bad. The recent ruling of the press case put the country in an appalling position. The plaintiff having to prove stolen medical records and family members flunkies going on record to speak to royal reporters with no proof is a dangerous bind we find ourselves in
    I'm glad they enjoyed their vacation.

    They can’t seem to figure out who they are or what they. I’m unsure why they felt the need to share images of them visiting Althorp. Or even sharing photos of the children. It’s in sharp contrast from what they advocate about the dangers of putting children on SM.
    I’ve often thought if they’d have taken a leaf out Prince Joachim and Princess Marie of Denmark book, how very different things might/could have been. But,they continue to court controversy. Let’s hope some lessons will be learnt going forward.
    Lowri.

    Too bad people just can't be nice. We all watched Harry grow up and many of us just cheer on happy people in general so why do so many have to be so nasty to this particular couple? Remember the adage, If you don't have anything nice to say just be quiet? Please, if anyone wanted any more negative opinons about other peoples choices we'd be watching the news instead of admiring/critiquing royals clothes.
