In the preview, Meghan is in discussion with Emma about the need for authenticity to achieve success and queries the host: “Did you see my ‘Baby Momma’ dance?”
Emma, founding partner of Kim Kardashian’s Skims label, shared her excitement: “We maybe watched it like 20 times yesterday, and I was like, is that, is that her? Is that Prince Harry there with the fingers…I was like, okay…good on Harry, let’s go. But that’s you, right? Like that’s you in a way that we kind of haven’t been able to see you before.
“And I did like a little secret cheer, cause I was like, well, that’s what I kind of want to see from you. Like I wanna see that happiness and that honesty and that ‘I don’t give a f***’ kind of thing.”
Breaking her silence, Meghan spoke about the footage, stating: “That was four years ago. So it’s also a really great reminder that with all the noise or whatever people do, there’s still a whole life – a real, authentic, fun life – that’s happening behind the scenes.
“I’m just grateful that now, being back on social as well, I have a place where I can share it on my own terms.”
This comes following a recent heartwarming Father’s Day tribute Meghan shared on Instagram, featuring previously unseen clips of Prince Harry with their children Archie and Lilibet.
Alongside Jason Mraz’s song Have It All, the Instagram video showcased Harry in a sweet family moment. Meghan expressed her adoration for her husband with a simple but powerful caption: “The best,” alongside, “Happy Father’s Day to our favourite guy.”

The Duchess made her comeback to social media earlier this year, and frequently posts about personal achievements and professional news on her Instagram account.
