Meghan celebrates her 39th birthday on Tuesday

While Prince Harry has yet to share a public message to his wife just yet, last year he celebrated her 38th birthday by posting a photo of her wearing a blue Veronica Beard dress during their royal visit to Tonga in 2018, and wrote: "Wishing HRH The Duchess of Sussex a very Happy Birthday. 'Happy Birthday to my amazing wife. Thank you for joining me on this adventure!' - Love, H."

Meghan and Harry will celebrate Meghan's birthday with their son Archie in LA

The pair are expected to mark the occasion at their temporary home in LA, which Harry gave a sneak-peek into after joining a virtual global summit for his sustainable tourism project Travalyst, revealing a corner in the home with cream walls, and two windows with dark oak frames. Harry sat on a matching oak armchair with cream cushions, while next to him there was a vase of cream orchids. Another video of Meghan reading a storybook to her son Archie saw the pair snuggled in a cream leather armchair in front of a wall with light yellow walls, next to a large green plant.
