The doting mom of two concluded her Instagram tribute with, “I, too, ‘love you more than all the stars in all the sky, all the raindrops, and all the salt on all the french fries in all the world.'”

The post generated a wide range of reactions on social media, with much of the conversation focusing on the children’s appearance — particularly their hair color.

One person questioned“Archie has black straight hair here and Lily has mousy hair but she looks the size of a six yr old not a three yr old? What is going on [sic]??”

Another wrote“Archie’s’ hair color & texture changed again; from curly to straight, from ginger to black [sic].” A third individual remarked“Now Archie has brown hair? I thought it was auburn?”

While Meghan appeared joyful and vibrant during the concert, she also recently opened up about the deeper, more emotional aspects of her life as a mother.

When asked what she hopes her daughter Lilibet would one day say about her, Meghan responded, “I hope she says… ‘Oh, my gosh. No one has ever loved someone more than the way our mom loved us.’ And I put that in practice.”

She spoke about the efforts she makes daily to be there for her children with love and intention. “That’s part of every day how I show up for them. I read a lot of parenting books. I really want to be good at it. I think a lot of stuff comes naturally and a lot of stuff… we can all use tools,” she said.

Meghan also shared a personal parenting habit she’s adopted, inspired by a friend. “One of our mom friends, she had said to me last year that she just created sort of secret email addresses for her kids that she’ll give to them at some point in their life… I thought it was such a great time capsule to create for them [sic],” she explained.

She went on to describe her nightly ritual. “Before I go to bed, almost every night, I email them… the things you’re not going to frame, the things you’re not going to put pen to paper in a journal. But they will end up, at one point in their life, maybe when they’re 16 or when they’re 18, that I say, ‘Here’s an email that I’ve been keeping for you,'” added Meghan.

In one heartfelt moment, Harry reflected on his daughter, “I think at the moment I see a lot of my wife in Archie and I see a lot of my mum in Lili. She’s very Spencer-like. She’s got the same blue eyes and sort of like golden reddish hair.” Meanwhile, Meghan noted, “Something felt so complete once we had Lilibet.”

In another interview, Harry reiterated that he sees his mother most clearly in their children, joking that “the ginger gene is a strong one.”
