Meghan Markle has shared a series of sun-soaked snaps from her "summer holiday" with Prince Harry and their children. 

The Sussexes travelled to Europe and are believed to have stayed in Portugal prior to their visit to the UK earlier this month. 

In new pictures, Meghan and Harry were seen wearing swimsuits on the beach with their children, Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, five, splashing in the sea.

In one picture, Harry, wearing a cap, playfully flipped Lilibet in the air as the family enjoyed a pool day. 

In another, Meghan and Harry were seen giggling alongside a glass of red wine as they enjoyed a date night over dinner. 

"Summer holiday," Meghan captioned the carousel of pictures, adding a sun emoji.

It also seems that Prince Archie is taking after his royal cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, who are known to love planes and enjoy watching the Trooping the Colour flypast each year. 

The youngster was even seen having a go in the pilot's seat in the plane's cockpit during their travels!

Harry and Meghan's Portugal home

Prince Harry and Meghan purchased a property in Portugal in 2023 – and this is where they may have stayed earlier this month.

The couple has also been working on renovations, overhauling the interiors, according to reports in the Daily Mail

Princess Eugenie, Prince Harry's cousin, is also known to have a home in Portugal. Eugenie and her family are based on the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club in Comporta. It is not known where the exact location of Harry's home is. 

The royal couple still retain their main home, a mansion styled like a Mediterranean villa, called the Chateau of Riven Rock in the heart of Montecito.

Prince Harry and Meghan's visit to the UK

Prince Harry and Meghan visited the UK earlier this month, concluding in a much-anticipated reunion between King Charles and his grandchildren.

The King and Queen Camilla reunited with Archie and Lilibet at Highgrove in Gloucestershire for a private meeting, with no details or photographs released. 

Meghan had been scheduled to join her husband at a one-year-to-go Invictus event at Birmingham's NEC, but security concerns prevented her from taking part as planned, and she didn't end up attending any public-facing engagements.

A source later told People Magazine that Meghan felt "a lot of sadness" in not being by Harry's side, as she is "very supportive" of him.
