Meghan Markle is sharing a new family photo of Prince Harry and their children following his latest legal setback.

On Saturday, May 3, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, posted a photo on Instagram of Harry, 40, with their son Prince Archie, 5, and their daughter Princess Lilibet, 3, in what seemed to be a statement of solidarity, a day after the dismissal of Harry’s appeal to reinstate his security.

The captionless black-and-white image showed Prince Harry with his back toward the camera as he walked hand-in-hand with Archie, while Lilibet is sitting on his shoulders in what appeared to be the garden of the family’s Montecito home.

The Duchess of Sussex’s post comes after Prince Harry lost his appeal to reinstate his state-funded U.K. security on Friday, May 2. He attended the hearing at the Royal Court of Justice in London on April 8 and 9.

The Duke of Sussex said his security was unjustly revoked after stepping back from royal duties and moving to the U.S. in 2020. In February 2024, Harry lost his initial case against the government’s Royal and VIP Executive Committee [RAVEC]’s decision to downgrade his security, which he appealed.

Speaking to the BBC after losing his legal appeal on Friday, May 2, the Prince said of his children returning to the U.K.,“I can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the U.K. at this point.”

“The things that they’re going to miss is, well, everything,” he continued. “I love my country. I always have done. Despite what some people in that country have done.”

Harry said of the impact this has had on his children, “I miss the U.K., I miss parts of the U.K., of course I do,” before adding, “I think that it’s really quite sad that I won’t be able to show my children my homeland.”

Following the judges’ decision over his appeal on Friday, Prince Harry said in a statement, “The U.K. is my birthplace and will always be part of who I am. It is a place I love, and the country where my son was born.

“I’ve only ever wanted to continue my charitable work in supporting the causes and people that mean so much to me, and for my children to know the beauty of my homeland,” he added. “I remain committed to a life of public service.”
