Prince Harry and Meghan treated their young family to a day at Disneyland on Monday, marking both their children’s birthdays with a magical outing in Anaheim, California.
Prince Archie’s birthday fell on May 6 and Princess Lilibet will turn five on June 4.
Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, joined the Sussexes for the theme park excursion.
“They were celebrating the kids’ birthdays together,” a source told People magazine. “The kids did lots of rides, and it was a special way to extend Mother’s Day for Meghan and her mom.”
The young princess enjoyed several sweet moments with Disney characters during the visit.

Meghan documented the day on her Instagram account, posting a gallery captioned with a single red heart emoji.
The Duchess of Sussex also uploaded a video to her Instagram Stories capturing a playful interaction between Mickey Mouse and her mother, with the famous character greeting Ragland with a warm hug.
Meghan looked on during the moment alongside Minnie Mouse, with Lilibet also present for the character encounter.
The Disneyland adventure followed a similar celebration twelve months earlier, when the family visited the theme park to mark Lilibet’s fourth birthday.

Just days before Monday’s outing, the Sussexes had celebrated Archie reaching his seventh year.
Meghan marked the occasion by sharing nostalgic photographs on social media, including an image of Harry holding their newborn son on a sofa, with the infant sleeping peacefully on his father’s chest.
“7 years later…happy birthday to our sweet boy,” she wrote alongside the post.
A second photograph depicted Archie and Lilibet strolling together along a beach close to the family’s Montecito residence.
Though the couple largely shield Archie and Lilibet from public attention, they offer glimpses of family life through social media.

The Duchess of Sussex has previously spoken about their efforts to establish an ordinary upbringing for their children despite their unusual circumstances.
“Once you know us, I think you want us to have the same normalcy as parents and for our children as they do, despite however unique our situation is,” Meghan said.
She added that the family regularly dines out at restaurants rather than exclusively in private settings.
“We go to a lot of dinners, and not just in people’s homes or private rooms; we just go into the restaurant,” she explained. “I really love that we can just have fun.”
