<p id=”par-5_31″>Meghan shared the video of the family’s day at a Santa Barbara pumpkin patch on social media with The Mamas & the Papas song “California Dreamin” playing in the background. </p>
<p id=”par-6_51″>In the timelapse footage Archie and Lili turned their heads turned towards the camera. Although the images are blurry, they marked the first time Lili’s face was seen in a photo since her 1st birthday portrait in 2022 and the first time Archie’s was seen since the Sussexes’ 2021 Christmas card. </p>
<p id=”par-7_15″>The blurry images appeared in Meghan Instagram Stories, shortly before she posted a reel of the outing.</p>
<p id=”par-8_61″>Since Meghan and Harry make it a point to not show their kids’ faces, some saw this as a mistake when duchess uploaded it. But not everyone is convinced that was the case with one publicist telling <a href=”https://theroyalist.substack.com/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Royalist</a>: “It’s all a bit too convenient. The clip gets attention, the internet explodes, and suddenly Meghan’s brand rollout is on everyone’s radar.”</p>
<p id=”par-9_31″>But one fan on social media argued that the clip was too quick and they completely missed the children’s faces, saying, “The video was so fast I didn’t even notice them!”</p>
