He said in the clip, "Mama, watch this."

Notably, the Duchess of Sussex rejoined Instagram on New Year's Day and has since shared photos and videos of Lilibet and Archie, including where they were heard talking, with their faces hidden.

Prince Harry unhappy with Meghan Markle using their children in brand promotion: Expert

During an appearance on Hello! Magazine’s 'Right Royal' podcast in early April, Matt Wilkinson, the royal editor of The Sun, talked about how Prince Harry might feel about their children being featured on social media.

Podcast hosts Emmy Griffiths, Andreas Caamano, and Hello!’s royal editor, Emily Nash, joined him, according to the Daily Mail.

Meghan had posted content on Instagram with her children, particularly since the launch of her business called As Ever.

During the podcast, Wilkinson shared his thoughts on how Prince Harry might feel about their children being featured on social media.

He said, "My understanding of this is that, up to a certain stage, Harry would much rather his children were not seen."

Moreover, Wlikinson contrasted Harry's perspective with Meghan's and said, "Whereas Meghan grew up in California, she once said she would like to have a more California style lifestyle, take them down the beach, go out, do stuff. She doesn't want to hide them away."

Even though Meghan posts content on Instagram, she refrains from showing her children's faces. It is a practice also followed by Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie with their children, per the outlet.

Meanwhile, Wilkinson added, "I think Harry's living in [like things are] the way they were when he was a child [...] the media landscape has shifted."

"You could argue that Meghan isn’t exploiting the children, she’s just…well, maybe she is exploiting them but she’s using them to display her brand. She’s a mother. A homemaker and cooking at home," he said.
